I tried the Food Network Stand at GABP last night for the first time. They offered the "combo" of buffalo chicken mac & cheese and a hot dog for $12. The mac and cheese was forgettable, and had a nice buffalo kick to it. However, the hot dog was a man's dream. They let you add any toppings you want, and they have a long list of available toppings. I went with fried onions, bacon, barbecue sauce, and shredded cheese.

The Mac & Cheese was in about a 16 oz container, and I would have been disappointed if that was all I ordered. It would have been $8 on it's own. I mentioned the hot dog was the star of the show, and there is probably going to be some variance based on who is making your hot dog on a given night.

I ordered bacon on the dog just because it felt right. I was pleased to see that the bacon pieces were crisp, and this guy put about 1/2 a pound of bacon on my hot dog. Again, I am not sure if this is standard practice. Needless to say the taste was amazing, and the hot dog could have been a meal unto itself. Worth the splurge for one night.
