Hot dogs may not have originated in the U.S., but for countless Americans, they represent the epitome of comfort, whether eaten from a humble street cart, at a backyard barbeque or – even more memorably – at the ballpark.
This week on the podcast, we’re chatting with Hank Stiehl, co-owner of Riley’s Good Dogs, a nascent mobile food concept that’s banking on America’s love for the hot dog with a menu of both plant-based and meat-based hot dogs and sausages that takes the classic comfort food to new levels. From dreaming up innovative sausage-based combinations to creating a business model that’s as good to the earth as it is to customers’ stomachs, we’re getting to the bottom of Riley’s dog- and people-friendly concept to find out what makes their “good dogs” some of the best of the bunch.
