Finding The Best Hot Dog In New York
You need to have these two guys just traveling the world, trying stuff.
💯
no! the british guy is so boring
The Brit is jarring
Trying stuff, talking a lil, going somewhere else. No dazzle, no razzle. That’s what I need.
@@brando8882Word. And who thought to put a white t-shirt on a pasty English fella?!
Put these two on the discovery channel or something. I just need more Harry and Joe traveling the world and eating local cuisines.
Theyre basically the only reason people sub to this channel so no way they let that happen
1. The hotdogs at McSorleys used to exist in Coney Island before Nathan's. A worker named Nathan's used to work at Feltmans and opened his own place near by using Feltman's recipe and charging half the price of Feltmans. The Feltman family went bankrupt and never made hotdogs again. The current Feltman is revived by a historian whose grandpa used to eat at Feltmans
the british guy is so boring
@@brando8882boring or just not an over the top American?
@@brando8882 he is quite sedate
The dude who revived Feltmans is the same guy that exploits that autistic dude WorldOfTshirts on TikTok right?
Nathan's New York hot dogs? Please, they're just a basic, boring hot dog that doesn't do anything for me. Vienna's Chicago hot dogs, on the other hand, are a delicious marvel of flavor and texture. Every bite is filled with juicy meat and flavorful toppings, creating a hot dog experience that just can't be beat. If you're in the mood for a great hot dog, skip Nathan's, and go for Vienna's instead. Your taste buds will thank you.
Harry eating hot dogs while wearing a shirt with a hot dog on it. Love it.
balls the size of watermelons!
I am going to eat your parents while wearing a shirt with a picture of them on it. Love it.
npc comment
A white tee shirt at that...a BOLD choice to be sure!
@@Triggerhappy2805welcome to TH-cam
Harry is so patient and open-minded despite not being excited at all to dedicating an entire day to driving around NYC and eating hot dogs.
I just watched their New York Pizza video so I’m very delighted to find out they have so many videos together. A great duo, the chemistry is amazing - also just makes me want to eat everything 😭
You wanna come eat some fried chicken with me together ?
Love these guys and their food tours! Great banter.
Nah that guy with hair seems to be picky when it comes to food.
the british guy is so boring
@@brando8882get a life my dude. You’ve commented this under every single comment. Get new material
@@zZiL341yRj736this is part of what I love is that they are so different. Like Harry isn’t a picky eater where as joe is very much so. It’s fun the sort of back and forth.
They're comforting because they represent an authentic extrovert-introvert friendship. I'm totally the "Joe" in my friendships haha.
0:21 Gray's Papaya
3:41 McSorley's Old Ale House
11:13 Billy's Hot Dog Cart
14:35 Shake Shack
19:11 Nathan's Famous
thank you for the timestamps!!
I live in NYC - UWS. I frequent this Gray's Papaya on 72nd St & Amsterdam Ave. When he said "the snap of the hot dog" is EXACTLY what happens. When I go there, I buy 4 hot dogs. 2 for lunch & 2 for dinner. A real treat!
Can we get more of these guys? Their chemistry is so wholesome
I hope they keep this going its really fun watching these 2 have fun and enjoy good food😁
the british guy is so boring
This might be my favorite one of the entire NYC series🌭
the british guy is so boring
@@brando8882 yeah cause you seem soooo interesting and have so much going on, making the same comment several times on this video 🙄.
@@Mrsolpjh you gonna cry some more?
@@brando8882the irony of you calling him boring here and everywhere else is amusing
@@brando8882 🥱 boring ass reply
I REALLY enjoy these Food Tours. I hope you can keep doing them!
I really do like these two’s chemistry, energy, and commentary. New York and Hotdogs is like the saying, “PB & J.” 🌭 👏 😋
I absolutely love these videos of the two of you getting together in person and trying food of each other city
As far as the split grilled dog, I love the classic cook, but, the split gives more surface for the maillard reaction and that extra char comes through in every bite and doesn't disappoint. When on a flat top, that's a great way to go.
Thanks so much for continuing this series with Joe & Harry. Your best content!
Please don't stop this series. This is my favorite
Echoing others, love this series! Very laid back vibe + great food is the perfect combo
The food comes second to the conversation. Excellent chemistry between these two food gods. ps. gotta have peanut sauce on a dog.
the british guy is so boring
@@brando8882 seems you cant stop talking about him looking at your recent comments, sound jelly.
Oh man, I gotta try peanut sauce next time!
@@brando8882 where as you are a hoot ...... not
Gray poupon is a brand of Dijon mustard. Maybe that’s how you should’ve explained it to him because that is what it is, than he might of known what it is. 😂
the british guy is so boring
Maille Dijon is the brand you most often see, but Grey Poupon is readily available in the UK.
@@brando8882all British people are, what's even worse is they think they are soooo interesting.
I personally volunteer to bring these two all around Italy to eat the best typical food in various cities.
Imagine pizza in Naples or carbonara in Rome. Amazing.
I would prefer them to eat real pizza, and they are already in New York, so its a lot easier too.
Love this plz keep these 2 on here. Because without harry and joe i wouldn´t know what to do om days i need videos like this
I’m living for these food tours !! Can’t wait for the next one !
Hell yeah someone who actually stands up for Ketchup lovers! I don’t mind combining both Ketchup and Mustard. I don’t mind just Mustard only but either way it’s about the meat. I need a snap and it has to be beef. I live in nearby Connecticut and we have some great spots here and some of the best brands of dogs.
Yeah! I loved how someone said that it doesn't matter what you put on a hot-dog! It's just food, and it shouldn't matter at all! I love putting ketchup on hot-dogs, and sometimes ketchup and mustard too! :D
the british guy is so boring
@@brando8882LOOOL you fr are hating this is irrelevant to the comment 💀
Thanks, you saved me the bother of typing the exact same thing you did. If you ever find out you were cloned at birth and the clone was kidnapped and raised in another country i'm over in England :D
Ketchup Mustard and fried onions is the way I like my hot dogs.
I love these two guys. Food Tours are the best. They should do Chicago.
the british guy is so boring
@brando8882 you REALLY hate a guy from a free video series you don't have to watch. Also he's half of the most successful duo on this channel so don't hold your breath waiting for him to leave. Or do hold your breath if it would keep you quiet.
are you going to cry?
@@Ramonatho
@@brando8882 Why are you commenting this everywhere? Get a life
@@brando8882😂 I agree, British dude is boring. But their personalities work together
Great vibes, really good dynamic between these two, you guys are really onto something!
Oh boy another episode! Just when I thought they wrapped up the season, BOOM! Another episode. Man I love it. Hope they have more down the pipe!
we need more of Harry and Joe..these two are 💯
I am incredibly lucky that when I went to Manhattan on business about 10 years ago, the office manager there over the course of only 2 days in the city, made sure I went to artichoke for pizza, papaya king for hot dogs, Katz's deli (where I got brisket and not the pastrami... no regrets), McSorleys ale house, and Veselka for pierogi, among a few other places selling amazing cocktails. Considering I was only there 5 days and I was working, it was awesome. I'm watching various new york "best of" food videos and discovering that she took me to some of the best places in the city and I didnt even realise it at the time.
Love when these 2 are together as they have magic. Liking this diff content xx
This is the best series! Love it
This was such a chill, slow and relaxing video amidst the bombastic edits and super digestible content insider usually does.
Food tours is an amazing series
Hope u guys do more ..u are great pair and the way u love food is legit
I love Joe and Harry’s interaction. They are funny and so knowledgeable. By far they are my favorite in this Chanel!
We need more food tours
the british guy is so boring
@@brando8882
No he's not.
I love how this video takes us to hidden gems for hot dogs in New York. It's like a food tour from home!
Love these guys 👍. Heading to New York next year so these food tours videos came at the right time 🙂.
I wish England could do Hotdogs like this and not those awful Rollover hotdogs you see everywhere, that taste of rubber 😂
When Rollover launched they had a spike that pierced the bun from one end. Like a sausage roll but not quite piercing the far end. One of many sauces was then squirted in and the sausage added. They were fantastic.
I didn't see them for a while, then it was a sliced bun with fewer options for sauce. Absolute rank.
@georgeprout42 Apparently its German or am I hearing it wrong also fun fact you learn something new everyday thanks for the information
Totally agree
@@justafamouswhispererCould be, just my UK perspective of them. They went from a "go to" snack, to "avoid at all cost".
They're really not the money either 😂
This reminds me of my childhood. Pleva's Polish meat market hot dogs, from Cedar, Michigan, just outside of Traverse City. We would buy these dogs, take them to the beach, roast them over a driftwood fire on the beach of Lake Michigan. Best dogs Ive ever eaten.
Love these food tours videos, please, keep them coming!!
As long as it was outside because nothing good comes from Traverse City.
Brilliant video! I could definitely imagine that papaya drink after that comparison to a vanilla mini milk ice lolly, a hit of nostalgia there, lol.
I love this Joe and Harry Insider food show because both are really a trus representative of British politeness and American rock n roll...
You guys need to do Chicago Italian beef sandwiches next
The sleeve of saltines with raw onions and cheese is such grandpa snack....obsessed 🤣
Also makes you drink more.
@@andrewmartin2103 very true!! I don’t think that combination is a mistake in that type of establishment haha!
dude i love the videos of you both eating things around any city. thank you for all of them. you both seems like chill ass dudes to just enjoy some good shit. thank you.
Great video. Fun to see Harry and Joe together.
Great video, production and presentation. Your choices are perfect. I love your inclusion of Billy's on 93rd and CPW. Billy is a terrific person and his product is tip-top. You basically have to bore a hole in his hand for him to accept a tip.
I'm pretty much a mustard and sauerkraut guy, but that Shake Shack Shack-ago dog is compelling. I live way too close to there.
Gray's Papaya is a staple and superb. You had their "Recession Special", which is a bargain for $6.45.
I'm so happy that you didn't include Papaya King...perhaps because they moved across Third Avenue and are renovating. It used to be great, but in the last two years has become inedible. Their dogs are salt bombs, tough and overly chewy. And they're really expensive. If visiting Manhattan, stay away.
McSorley's is genius. Thanks for including. I've been there way too many times, and I'm not much of a drinker. I go there for their hot dog, atmosphere and history.
Thanks again for the whirlwind tour. You guys are the best!
Great comment from someone who knows what they're talking about. You're awesome, have a great holiday season!
Joe should take Harry to Chicago to try Chicago Dogs
Those aren't hot dogs it's salad in a bun
Love these episodes ❤
love these guys together
7:14 - are you kidding me? It's called Dijon mustard. Grey Poupon is just a brand. Of course he knows what it is, but everyone just calls it Dijon
yeah, that's peak seppo. only knowing the name Grey Poupon because of an American tv commercial and calling it "some fancy mustard" without even knowing the word "dijon" lmao
I know both. But only because the Simpsons made a Poupon joke as well. 😂
the british guy is so boring
@@colkiwi the commercial aired in 1981... just how old is Joe?
I like relish, ketchup and mayonaise with my dog. Or a chilidog with cheese. In Germany you can get bratwurst on the christmasfairs. I like those with musterd. The breadroll is just a handle, the wurst sticks out. And now I get hungry 😋
I love German bratwurst 🌭 it’s yummy. Lucky to get a German Christmas Fayre in our town in the U.K. and they always have great hot dogs
Recently I've liked a dog with grilled onions and mustard or sometimes I replace it with melted cheese. Although I've also tried the Seattle dog which one of the ingredients is cream cheese and you know what people should give it a chance, it's not bad.
I love putting cheese, ketchup, sometimes mustard, and pickle relish onto hot-dogs! ^_^ I think that it's awesome that you can enjoy hot-dogs in Germany! :D
the british guy is so boring
@@megalisa830bright6 not a pickle fan but everything else - yummy 😋
This really is the best series on TH-cam. Thank you
I am loving these tourist food wars. To gotta see how far you can develop these vlogs. It more interesting having a vs element to the food reviews. English taste vs American taste.
Glad to see some Hot Dog reviews in NYC as the dirty water dogs I found disgusting near MSG but “The Brooklyn Classic “ in Times Square was delicious! Hard to find a decent dog these days…Copenhagen has some great ones(John’s Hot Dog Deli)👌🏾 cool to see a test of just the dog only as kraut and the fixings can mask the dogs flavour.
the british guy is so boring
It's true the chicago dog is the ideal hotdog. It was a true tragedy when Sonic stopped serving the Chicago dog 😢
Love these guys, great chemistry and very funny!
Thank you for sharing ❤
To me it's very strange to have beef sausages and not pork. But they do look great.
More of these videos please :D
A food tour in Chicago would be great! Harry should have some proper Chicago Dogs
Love this series
There's a saying in Denmark. "You can always start with a sausage and always end with a sausage" - Dennis from Tour de Grillbar
This makes me want to have a hotdog real bad 😂
the british guy is so boring
American Pie reference..?😅
@@brando8882 Disagree...he's really charming and probably a good friend to have in a round of friends!
@@brando8882f…ck off seeing you comment this 100+ times
@@brando8882 you've said that on multiple comments. He's not boring at all, he's just not some over hyped yank!
For some wild reason, most people in the UK only boil their hotdogs. When I told my friend from Manchester that it should be grilled, or at the very least pan fried on the stove with some butter he looked at me like I was crazy.
The best thing about Sabrett, is their mustard. I keep a bottle of Sabrett and a bottle of Guldens spicy brown mustard in my fridge at all times.
Not gonna lie, i always had them boiled as well. I was surprised when reading packaging they can be grilled, so of course i had to try it. I wouldn't really say it changed them though, the texture differed but honestly the flavour was pretty similar. I think i prefer them boiled for texture and grilled for flavour though
I always cut them and grill them now , tastier. Prefer beef hot dogs over pork
Ah, I know this one! It depends on the dog. Go visit Germany, visit any butchers and marvel at their array of sausages.. Which probably won't include 'frankfurters', even though they might look like them. UK usually gets those and they're usually meant to be boiled. If we want grilled sausages, we produce our own fine ones like cumberland.
Goated combo keep up the vids boys loving it
McSorleys brings me way back. Every year my sister a friend and I would go to the St Patrick’s day parade in New York to watch her husband march with the 42nd. We would see him and then go to McSorleys for a drink and end up at the armory for a huge party. I never knew they had hot dogs.
Jacobs cream crackers and cheese is a huge thing in the UK. Not sure if theyre the same as saltines however.
We need Food Tours to come to Denmark and experience A REAL DANISH HOTDOG! 🔥
Agreed!
When I traveled from the UK to NYC, hotdogs were something I was really looking forward to. Gray’s didn’t disappoint me. It was just phenomenal. Ever since, I’ve traveled around the world, but nothing has come close. Need to be back in New York.
Love Joe’s confidence when pitching Papaya Dog. Classic.
I’ve always been a proponent of mustard & ketchup on hot dogs. I think the sweetness of the tomato, the sourness of the vinegar, and that sort of peppery taste of the mustard all complement each other really well. Fried onions are also a must.
Totally agree!
Joe and Harry - Great vid, and Joe, you picked out most of the iconic dogs in town (NYC). As to Gray's Papaya, when I was a kid, there were dozens of those places, all over Manhattan. Papaya Mike's, Lilly's Papaya, etc. It was a franchise chain, all being nearly the same, but each a little different (personality). They used to make what are now called smoothies, and you could watch them blend the fruit for your drink, right as you ordered it. Smoothies and dogs were inexpensive for the market, and certainly by today's standards.
Yeah, that McSorely's mustard is hot. A waiter there told me it was the horseradish in it, and Harry was right about it being hot as Wasabi. Nearly all Wasabi sold here in the States, and probably the UK, are a paste of powdered horseradish with green food coloring, and not true Wasabi powder, which is not only far more delicious, but expensive as well. From what I know, most UK mustards are just mustard powder and water, which is basically what you get at a Chinese take-out in the States, being very hot in its own right. Colemans is the market leader here in the States also.
Gray Poupon Dijon has white wine in it, while the 'supposed' original Dijon mustard, Maille, does not. I just finished a bottle of each (just last night), and Gray Poupon wins hands down. It's the only mustard I ever eat off a spoon, spread on nothing else, and want more of. BTW, only buy mustard in a glass container, as when in a plastic bottle, it picks up the leeched taste of plastic. Any and all mustards, even Gray Poupon.
Real sauerkraut's tang comes from the 'sour' of fermentation, not vinegar, same with true pickles, and just as with sourdough bread, where the yeast is fermented. The only commercial kraut I know of (and can be found in just about any supermarket), is Boar's Head, sold refrigerated and in a plastic bag. The ingredients do not list vinegar. Making it at home, is very easy to do, just like making pickles or a sourdough starter, for making sourdough bread is. For pickles, it's usually 'half sour' aka New dill pickles that are the ones truly fermented. Just read the label. If it has vinegar in it, it's probably never been fermented at all.
As to toppings, if you want ketchup, have ketchup, but the Council is correct. It's mostly kids that do that. Personally, I don't, but nor do I care if anyone else does. Sauerkraut and mustard is standard, or mustard and relish, or onions, usually just by themselves, because as you mentioned, the onion sauce is ketchup based, which btw, is also very easy to make at home. TH-cam has plenty of instructional vids on making any of these things. I can vouch for them all being relatively easy, inexpensive and fun to make your own, except for horseradish, only because I've never made it, but I'm told it's easy also.
I have never made the onions with horseradish. Personally, I prefer them without. You should totally try to make some.
Lies again? FNB Money Like Harmless
Terrific video. I have to say, I love Grey's and Nathan's and I'll have to try one next time at McSorley's
I enjoy hearing that guys opinion from UK
FYI, the current record for number of hot dogs eaten in 10 minutes is 75, achieved in 2020 by Joey Chestnut at the Nathan’s hot dog eating competition. He broke Takeru Kobayashi’s record by quite a few.
He ate 76 in 2021.
Right!
How does he not know the GOAT Joey Chestnut.
I adore hot dogs. I absolutely inhale them, especially if they’re the boiled kind rather than grilled… but I highly doubt I could eat more than like TEN in that period. I have no idea how competitive eaters do it!
@@LordLOCI stand corrected. Got that info from Siri… man was she wrong 😅 Joey Chestnut still holds the record though, proud of him as he’s from my hometown of Vallejo, CA. 😊
@@mercgurl80 I mean, you were only off by 1 lol
I have zero interest to go to New York until I see all the food You almost had me at the cheesesteaks I'm a sucker for cheesesteak and now hot dogs! I cannot afford to ever go but dang those hotdogs look amazing!
the british guy is so boring
I had to search out that Grey Poupon ad...! Excellent!
Ackchyually, it is a normal thing for a Chicago dog to be cut like that when you order a “char-dog.” I used to go to Murphy’s on Belmont and Racine before they closed and they would do that.
YEEESSSSSS! Do more food tours! They’re the best 🌭
the british guy is so boring
@@brando8882 they both can’t be like Joe
Glad to see more from these two, keep em coming insider!
the british guy is so boring
From the UK and I don't think I've ever had a beef hotdog (or seen one!)
They’re the best!!!
I used to get them from Costco but have not been for a few years. They are very good and a very good size, certainly I thought them far superior to a lot of the stuff we get in UK supermarkets which are frankly pretty poor and just mush. I used to buy a pack of 30 or whatever but you can freeze them in smaller bags.
lol what guess youve never been to london or any city for that matter or maybe you do and just stick to what you know
You can get beef hotdogs in Costco, and also in their food court in the U.K.
As to whether they are authentic or not, I have no idea.
"Thank you for taking us such a beautiful place. I enjoy watching this nice walk!"
10 min in and I had to go make hot dogs :) I also love the Chicago style, best ever, celery salt too!
Please don't ever separate these two.
I thought Joe retired I surely hope not
Seeing what the UK tends to consider a hot dog, I'm not at all surprised that Harry previously wasn't a fan.
Totally agree on the Chicago styled dog! And the one from Shake Shack is really good
These 2 are just my favorite
I’m only slightly disappointed with the lack of dogging and IKEA this time round 😂
the british guy is so boring
@BRANDO8882 YOU SOUND VERY ANTI ENGLISH OR ARE YOU JEALOUS OF HARRY
Harry possibly causing an international relations crisis by calling an Irish pub a British pub.
Good Friday Agreement down the toilet 😂.
the british guy is so boring
There were so many glasses of beer that could have been broken over his head when he said that.
He said it kinda reminds me of a British pub, which it would because how are they much different?
@@nicolad8822 huge differences between an Irish and British pub.
I love mcsorleys! I get the liver wurst sandwich and like 5-10 beers. The staff are old school and it’s an amazing place with huge history!
Love the video, and you both together are natural
I could easily eat 10 of Nathan's hotdogs in 10 minutes. No doubt in my mind.
With or without fillings?
the british guy is so boring
@BRANDO8882 TURN THE RECORD OVER
This video would be Ignatius J Reilly approved if he were able to leave New Orleans.
My valve was flaring up just watching this 😮💨
one of the best series on YT rn
these guys are perfect i want to see so much more content
Bro, I've been craving for some good hot dog and you show me this at 4 AM?
😂
You totally nailed it including a Chicogo "Style" dawg. But NO Chili Dog? Ball Dropped! You have done this friend from across Pond a disservice. You know I'm right.
the british guy is so boring
JUST AN ABSOLUTE BINGE SERIES. AMAZING. Can we have best southern style chicken sandwich.
Love the Feltmans dog at McSorleys! That’s my pick for best dog in nyc! Also recommend getting the liverwurst with that cheese plate - it’s the best
