This is how the people in Nuremberg eat Bratwurst.

Once again German science proves to be the best in the world.

    Once again German science proves to be the best in the world.

    Once again?

    What else are you referring to?

    Pardon my Spanish but how do you call that in German? I know english has no word for "stuff between normal breads", that's not a sandwich. In Spain we call it "bocata". Do you have a distinct word to differentiate from a sandwich?

    It's a pet peeve of mine, alongside calling everything "salami".

    In English they are called Sub from "submarine sandwich", based on traditional Italian style sandwiches that are the same as Bocatas. That is also where Subway restaurants get their name.

    But yes, the issue is that nor in Germany nor England have the "normal" bread, which they call Baguette.

    The closest thing I would say for Germans is a Brötchen, which in Spanish would be like a panecillo. What you are seeing in the picture is a Bratwurst Brötchen

    What condiments are on it? Relish?

    Relishes aren't really a thing in Germany, so, traditionally you only put mustard on a Bratwurstbrötchen. However, the sausage itself already contains herbs and spices, like a copious amount of marjoram, some pepper, mace, allspice, and sometimes wild garlic, caraway, or ginger.

    Ah, the classic "two cocks in the same canoe". A workaround is using bigger sausages.

    You can also slice the sausage halfway down the middle for more sauce area.

    Something about physics or geometry. Because theyre cylindrical when you grip the bun sideways you get 2 saucy weiners slapping you in the face.

    Which I appreciate sounds like a good time to some, but its hot and messy. Which I appreciate sounds like a good time again.

    In my town there's a place that sells something called "Pregnant Dog": A cheese stick inside a wiener inside a red sausage all wraped in bacon

    Stack them vertically. Use normal bun. Problem solved.

    Use a taller bun. I also am on team under-over. While the double barrel approach is innovative, it sacrifices on handling. Harder to properly grasp. An under-over config allows tall bun sides that can support a tactical grip with one or both hands without getting saucy fingers.

    This is one of Swedens national dishes, and I'm both surprised and disappointed no one seems to have mentioned that yet and that it isn't among the top comments. It's called a "Hel special" (whole special) and it's literally just this with balls of mashed potatoes and other toppings. Here are some photos:

    The most classic is with the chocolate milk drink "Pucko" (slang word for idiot):

    I've eaten a double hotdog a couple times. The bun wasn't twice as wide but twice as long. So it had to be thicker so the meat to bun ratio was actually smaller. It's the first thing you eat hung over at a music festival so who cares.

    Getting hot dog and bun manufacturers on the same page will be hard, they already have can't agree on on the amount per pack lol

    But of course they agree: you buy bread and sausages, you end up with leftover bread, so you have to buy more sausages, then you end up with leftover sausages—now you're stuck in an endless cycle. It's diabolical.

    Alternate idea: make the bun twice as long so you can wield the hot dogs like darth maul's lightsaber. Also easier to eat if you cant dislocate your jaw.

    The best way to do a hot dog is "open face," where you cut it down the length, but not enough to fully separate into two halves. Then spread and press the open insides against the pan before flipping to the other side. It's like butterflying a chicken. More surface area = more maillard reaction/yummy brown bits.

    What kind of loser hasn't double-dogged it before?

    I like this version better than the stacked version. Definitely way more surface real estate for condiments and additions.

    That’s a lot of processed meat. Not to mention the buns are nearly as bad as cake.

    The Zips in a town I lived in had double and triple dogs, as well as adding one or two to their array of single to triple burgers. Trick is to cut the dogs in half longways then you can shove all manner and amounts of meat between various buns
