To add a bit of extra taste to these I boil them, than in the same pan as the fried onions I then add the sausage to brown them a bit, taste even better.
try wrapping the aldi hotdogs in bacon and grill them. glaze with bbq sauce if you like that an it adds to the flavor and texture, really nice. The aldi hotdogs are great value imo.
Hot dog vendor carts in Toronto run 24/7 in downtown. Toppings are,sauerkraut,raw onions,gherkins,corn relish,ketchup,mustard,hot dog relish (green),mayonnaise,bacon bits. Buy your hotdog and top it yourself from the choices in tubs.
Just reminded me of the Spam and onion bap I had yesterday. I sell at car boot and catering girl was over generous with the onions. Definitely a very windy evening. I generally prefer red onions. Herta sausages have been around forever in the UK. I'd still say original and best.
Technically, you don't fry the onions for hotdog, you steam them. In the US, you can buy "sweet white" onions and they are not as pungent and work beautifully. Depending on the State you are in, some use plain mustard but others use a mustard pickle. Husband is American and will only eat the Hertz - typical Southern boy he likes his smothered with chilli. Maybe another meal try out for you! Bun, hotdog, lashings of meat chilli, smothered with grated cheese. Enjoy!
Well ...... Friend of ours is the Director of a Food Processing facility in the UK. We were chatting one evening after dinner and he said this .... "Easy to spot the lower income/working class in many Western countries because virtually everything they eat is fried". In the case of France, UK, and US I think that is true ..... Italy? Everything was simply loads of pasta. I would however, also say that Brits love their pastry/pies regardless of social background!!
Over here ( US ) we have so many different hot dogs, there must be thousands, the grocery stores here in the East usually offer around fifteen different varieties including the Maine reds
The Herta sausages are French (FR). They contain a lot more "dodgy" ingredients than the Aldi ones. I still prefer Lidl Bockwurst, though. I also fry some onions when I prepare a hotdog.
I doubt they contain more dodgy ingredients. French meat is often higher welfare than ours, you only have to taste their flavousome pork against our tasteless supermarket pork. I agree about the Lidl bockwurst though. Lidl dosen’t trade on imitation or trying to copy.
@@jameskrell4392 I think they are referring to all the crap ingredients added in the French factory not specifically the couple of percent less French meat. Aldi are German made not as you put it tasteless UK pork.
@@jameskrell4392 The list is longer on the Herta sausages package. Germany has much stricter rules regulating the contents of sausages than either France or Britain. Try buying Richmond sausages in Germany!
Instead of putting them in water Gareth, next time try em in t'owd air fryer. Did mine for about 4/5 mins and they were lovely. Nice with onion rings too !
Just came to post this, you can often get them in the heron, 2 packs for £1. Practically lived on them at one point 😂. Haven't seen them for a while though, sadly.
The Dulano range from LIDL is the best of the bunch. Their Frank's, Brats and Bocks are the best of any supermarket. The Brats are 92% pork as well iirc.
My husband who is American swears the Herta are the closest thing you can get over here to an American hot dog 🌭 the Aldi ones are good in a pinch but the Herta are the best. Usually only buy them when they are on offer to be fair and then put a couple of packs in the freezer 👍🏻 Good video again Gareth 👍🏻
Has he tried the Gilbert Chicago beef American hot dogs from Tesco’s yet ? Me and a friend are trying to find a proper American hotdog in the uk and these are next on the list
Try Dino's famous big dogs. Proper american style humongous meaty hot dogs. And do them american style so grill them rather than boil them. Throw into a soft, warmed brioche roll with mustard - Dijon is best but american works well - throw in some soft fried onions - not cremated like in the video - and chopped up vinegared pickles and jalapenos. Spot on
Love how Gareth has a script reading the comparison between the 2 products 😂😂😂 Also I find the best way to cook hotdogs is either the oven or the grill
I really struggle with mass produced hotdogs like that. They were alright when I was 15 but now I’m 50 I just would never buy them. Especially when there are loads of gourmet hot dog sausages out there. Nice review dude, and happy Easter.
@@andywatts8654 well you're clearly a lot younger than me, when you reach 50 you have to pay attention - diabetes, cholesterol - they all start coming for you.
A bit unfair that one has all the onions [and yes, they are a must]. Either way, German food designation standards require that "Frankfurters" must be all pork, so they both got that right. It's very dissapointing when you look at the ingredients and they've thrown in chicken too 'cos it's cheaper. Good review, as always.
I've been buying Hertas for many years now but the last couple of times, I've noticed a change. I always griddle them so they get a nice char on them and the amount of water coming out of them is ridiculous. They also don't get that 'bite' that you used to get with them and have noticeably less flavour. Think I'll try the alternatives from now on.
I remember eating franks and potato salad from a stall in Hamburg in the late 1960s. The ones they sell now are nothing like they used to be back them. I miss the crack of biting through the skin, and having the "juice" run out.
Mechanically recovered meat plus bollocks anuses snouts intestines in fact anything from the pig carcass can legally be described as ‘meat’-add chemical E numbers and cheapo spices/herbs for flavouring and you’ve got yourself a legal heart attack on a plate, no wonder the NHS is overloaded!!
as someone who works in the food production industry i would guess both of these brands came out of the same factory, most companies do this these days including the one i work for. the recipes are usualy not that different but the supermarket own brand are usualy way cheaper for almost the same product you get from the named brand.
Hey Gaz, I love your videos.... I watch them all the time and they provide some really good insight into comparisons and recommendations. I have to say though, you often say "I'm all over the place".... this time you kind of were. A really good pair of products to compare, but your comparison......using different bread, different condiments (onions on one, none on the other).. I'm afraid the water between bites doesn't mean anything on this one. I'm sorry to sound negative, I promise my message is just an honest one to highlight my surprise and it's probably because you are generally SO fastidious in making sure the comparison is so fair (water between tastes, for example). Still enjoyed the video, as always. Keep up the great work mate :)
We get the Aldi ones every time, we have them with charlotte portatoes mashed with butter, and peas for veg, we call it our light dinner every two weeks or so, luvly jubbly, we fry them,then chop them in three.😊
Looking like works of art with the mustard sauce, another classic BFG review. If not in a bun, frankfurters for dinner in our house are served with sauerkraut and boiled potatoes and mayo and loads of different mustards and several pickles.
The Herta say 73% pork meat and then list pork fat separately. The Aldi say 75% pork but don’t list pork fat separately. I usually buy the Lidl ones which I think are cheaper? If I haven’t got a hot dog bun I take a slice of white and wrap it around the Frank with some Dijon and Ketchup.
I wish American style beef hotdogs were more common in the UK. You can get them but not in any of the big supermarkets and I'm not sure why. In my local Sainsbury's and Tesco, they have an imported food section and there were several "American style" hotdogs but on closer inspection they were imported from Germany and were pork based. They even had beef salami but no beef hotdogs.
Awesome 🙌👌🔥👏🏻👏🏻 I have recently preferred herta,because of the flavour.so,this new jumbo version is interesting me. Another to try gar,is morliny original hotdog sausages- you’ll find them in the fridge section among the world foods. And cooking the onions in a bit of lard gives it another epic edge. Loved this.brilliant
Got some recommendations for you bud in Iceland. Plate size hash brown😂, Cumberland sausage skewers and limited Edition Ginsters Sausage and Onion slice (had one personally thought it was superb done in little oven😉)
Hi Gareth, We all had Hot dogs on Friday, just before our Hot cross buns, I usually the one's in the glass jar ,Wikinger from Iceland, Home bargains, Tesco and Sainsburys. Enjoy 😋🤤
A up me owd for best results keep your onions is a a dark dry place not in the fridge cotton onion sack is what we use same with potatoes last ages don’t have to go mad with size of sack just a thought for you great video mate 👍
I’m very glad to see that there wasn’t mechanically separated meat in the ingredients. I wouldn’t buy them if there was. I’d probably opt for the Aldi brand smaller sausages but more of them.
Fairer comparison would have been with the 10 pack of Herta frankfurters, they are £2.25 and I’ve tried both and prefer the taste and texture of the Herta ones.
Germany has stricter rules when it comes to their sausages and they have been in place often for hundreds of years, so the Aldi ones are probably closer to a proper German Frankfurter but still not as good as the best I would think. Order some from an online company called The Sausage Man who specialise in quality German made sausages and compare them with the cheaper ones. The difference is quite stark, although they are more expensive as a result.
Having listened to many cricket commentaries over the years I was always amused when Geoff Boycott commented: "There's more brains in a pork pie." I would be interested to know what cuts of pork are used in these hot dogs?
Gareth, if you want to sample the absolute best frankfurter try the M&S German ones. They are a bit more expensive but the quality more than makes up for it.
I like my frankfurters, wurst and similar. The best way to have the frankfurters is to score or put little cuts into them and put them on a low heat in the pan frying in my view. PS. It's hard to find this kind of thing in the UK at the moment. The Waitrose unearthed Frankfurters are really good but ridiculously overpriced like many things (though not all) at Waitrose. I recommend Lidl Mini Bockwurst. Good value and about as good. Better than Herta and the like in my opinion.
Imho the 35g Frank's are too thin to enjoy in a bun. Bun unlimited 4 x 70g are a good option. Netherlands. £2.00 in Asda, think £2.55 in sainsbury's. They also do a Mexican version which is great, but seem out of stock at the moment
Another great review pal hope all is well also them jumbo ones are £3.95 in sainsburys and trsco also if u boil the sausages u should put the onions in with them saves on the washing up lol
Hi Gareth. Thanks for another brill review. I haven't had hotdogs in ages. Might have some tomorrow night lol. Both looked good. Depends whether you prefer 4 big bangers or 10 skinny ones. Lol. Got to have the fried onions ketchup and mustard with some seasoning also. Keep up the spot on work. Best wishes from Scotland.
Gaz, I've always liked the Aldi frankfurters (they were 89p not too long ago); a lot of the tinned hot dogs are made with mechanically seperated chicken sadly. Try frying instead of the hot water; makes a tasty change 👍
i love the aldi frankfurters, me and my best friend have them cut up in a spaghetti and tomato and herb sauce dish really really tasty that way p.s i hope your guinea pigs are all healthy we sadly lost one of ours a week ago today
Got a packet of Lidl hot dogs in the fridge, I forgot to buy the finger buns ! Herta are best but are now to expensive.daft thing but I don’t like to eat the jumbo size.
Hot Diggity Dogs. They both look good to me. Whether you prefer jumbo or thin, onions or not, they're one of the best quick pleasing snack and main meals going. Great comparison review Gareth. Cheers mate 👍🤤😀
Nice upload but anything less than 90& pork is not great.................Aldi bottled frankfurters are about 90% and taste really good no bits of bone in them.
They are pretty good Gaz. And the cheap ones for less than 2 quid are good. Everyone's complains about increasing prices. Sorry everything is going up, and supermarkets must make some profit. Its not a sin
Afternoon Gareth Great vlog on frankfurters. No mad on them but my late husband liked them. Not a lot of difference. Glad you enjoyed them both but like you say, Must have onion with the frankfurter. Thank you Gareth Sue

I used to have them back in my youth days coming home after school. Apparently they are good for camping. 😉
Cross contamination cooking them in the same water! The smokey flavours would have mixed together .
He put so much sauce on them anyway it would have not made a difference.
Wish I could eat those. They look nice. I can only eat hotdogs with the ordinary sausage.

Afternoon Gareth Great vlog on frankfurters. No mad on them but my late husband liked them. Not a lot of difference. Glad you enjoyed them both but like you say, Must have onion with the frankfurter. Thank you Gareth Sue
Thanks 👍
Much thanks as always for your execllent content. You brighten my days and teach me along the way.
My pleasure!
The onion part🤣
Compare these to the rollover hotdogs. There class !
Im a chef and next time you cut something in the cutting board put a dishclot or a baize underneath to prevent moving it.
I pan fry my Frankfurters with onion, they are delicious pan fried , much better than heated in water in my opinion .
