Thats an aussie delicacy, what struggle?
Snags ftw, mate!
Mate, if you use frankfurters at your sausage sizzle I’m going to have some complaints
Struggle?! The ol’ Bunnings snag is a delicacy!
A good Australian partaking in holy communion at the church of bunnings on a Sunday.
The noble tradition of a sausage sizzle is far older[citation needed] and more noble than any “Bunnings”
Except its a sausage not a hotdog
And they’re $3.50 in Darwin
But if you live in Darwin its a lot cheaper because otherwise you have to factor in the flight and accommodation costs…
Replace the hotdog with regular sausage (cooked on a barbecue), and you’ve literally got Australia’s favourite weekend food. Onions (also barbecued) and tomato sauce optional.
The rest of the world is so adverse to the idea of using bread, it’s crazy. It’s the same cheapo white bread inside either way and who wants all that extra dough of a roll anyway, bleugh.
adverse
Technically here you want “averse”. But it’s weird how both those words even exist.
For america in particular it probs doesnt help that their bread is extremely sweet.
And they say Australians have no culture smh
If you want the ultimate feed, buy a half loaf of bread and cut it horizontally for the biggest sausage in bread ever:
This is blasphemy, it’s wrong way on the bread
As long as you arent putting your sausage in others peoples bread, you can put your sausage on your own bread however you like. We’re in currentyear. Non-standard sausage behaviour is perfectly acceptable now.
Except veggie sausages, no one likes those. And the ones who say they do are just lying and they know it!
Nah, I’m all about inclusivity. Every sausage sizzle should have veggie and gluten-free options available, even if I myself am never going to have them. I bought gluten-free sausages by accident last time I bought sausages, and it is definitely not as good.
Did you know that over here in Perth the bunnings sausage sizzle comes in hot dog buns?
Do your democracy sausages also come in hot dog buns?
I think there might be more flexibility there, but certainly all the ones I have seen are in a bun yes.
I have actually seen people do sausage sizzle (at backyard barbies) onto a burger bun before—you break the sausage in half and it fits really well. But never a hotdog bun. How interesting.
wtf Perth
Weird cultural quirk I know… And Bunnings mandate it.
Honestly at this point we think the slice of bread is a backwards eastern states custom 😄
Strange land, full of strange people…
I never understood how this was somehow a sign of being poor. I don’t buy hotdog buns. I have always ate my hotdogs this way.
This is my preferred consumption method. Buy a bag of hotdog buns and they have a single purpose, be a fluffy sausage pocket.
Hotdog buns with:
- PB & J - too much bread and possibly to sloppy
- In place of sandwich bread - nice try Satan.
It is a bread product designed with a singular purpose.
A loaf of sandwich bread, that is like the Swiss army knife of bread.
Is this a prank?
What? I came home and ate it tonight with a slice of fake cheese on each one. The franks were beef though.
with at least mustard though, right?
IMO thats not even a struggle.
Real struggle is when you don’t even have a hot dog so you just make a mustard sandwich. That’s what my childhood was like.
I could get ramen for $0.11 each if I bought a pack. I lived on that for months. A hotdog without bread or condiments cost more. A hotdog was fucking luxury.
RAMEN, you say?
Something something rolled up newspaper.
When I was in college I lived off the really cheap ramen… until it literally made me sick.
I can afford the higher quality ramen now (air fried, actual vegetable packets) which is a little more expensive (but still comparatively cheap). Still a great go-to day snack to keep me going.
The really cheap stuff is NOT good. I still buy occasionally unfortunately. What brands have actual real vegetables packets? I have a great international market near me but they have like 600 kinds of ramen. I’d like to outsource filtering through them for the good ones.
The Nongshim Shin Black ramen has a good veggie packet, has relatively large mushrooms, a bone broth packet, and the spicy seasoning packet. It’s about $2 a pack where I live (US). It’s great though, my favorite ramen so far.
Thank you Gork! I’ll be looking soon.
shiiiiittttt…they didn’t even have ramen when I was a kid. know what we had? spam and beatings. don’t eat your spam? ass beat and go to bed hungry and crying. and you were LUCKY to get government cheese on that fried spam.
damn…I really want some spam now. 🥹
I got spam and beatings as a kid. The ramen was when I moved out at 17. It got better by the time I was 20.
Thats advanced struggle, ngl tho I really like mustard so I might eat that normally 😅
It’s still industrial sausage on industrial bread. Fold it and there isn’t much difference.

Am i the only one who would cut it in half and then cut those in half if it was going on white bread? I would then stack them and make an actual sandwich.
Making your point with Blender is a new level
There’s probably forums where clicking “reply” just opens Blender.
And once you’ve sliced it like that, fry all the flat edges for that lush crispy burned goodness
At that point you may as well cook.
Didn’t you just cook the hot dog?
Heating ≠ cooking.
Fair point.
This is my go-to solution when I’ve got hotdogs and hamburger buns but no hamburgers or hotdog buns.
What software is this?
Blender
Yep.
Nice. Any tutorials you recommend that I can follow to start learning 3d Modeling?
The best place to start is this guy or some others like him.

There are tons of good tutorials online but I would start with the Guru.
Yep, 2 min in blender. I really could have made it better but it’s to make a point about a hot dog on the internet.
Free, amazing, and cross platform.
I have done this. Cutting it in half creates a flat surface so the bread isn’t thinner in one area, the gaps are all condiments, and it prevents the hotdog from rolling out.
When I was a kid this was just how you ate hotdogs at home. Chili dog was an open face sandwich.
Unpopular opinion, but I got used to eating hot dogs growing up with regular sliced bread and I might even prefer it. The bun/dog ratio is good. However, I know it’s more bread and is contradictory, but Danish hot dogs are my favorite.
Flat the sandwich bread with a rolling pin or a bottle (or whatever you have) then cover the weiner all around, at thins point you can add breadcrumbs and egg or leave it. Put it om airfryer for a while and there you go. Korean hot dog
Ehhhh, calling that a Korean hot dog is generous lol
lol yes it’s shit, but if all you have is that do your best
Tortillas are actually good for hotdogs. White bread tends to fall apart with mustard or relish.
Hotdogs wrapped in a tortilla are awesome, especially while camping. Saves soooo much space compared to a bag of buns and can’t be squished so easily.
I put down a slice cheese first, that seals the bread from anything wet, like sauerkraut or condiments.
Depending on how you define tortilla, this is the default way in Norway. At least when I was a kid we grilled and ate them like this with ketchup, mustard and crispy onions, can recommend.
Hmmmmmmmm you might be on to something ill have to try that out with my niece next time I have her haha
I never noticed how modest my childhood lifestyle was until my 1st grade teacher asked the class what we all did for vacation during the school break. I worked on a ranch or stayed home playing with secondhand toys. I remember thinking “wait… is this what people do? How?” I remember missing out on many opportunities as a child (travel, sports, restaurants, etc) due to finances, but still don’t consider it being a “poor” upbringing overall. My parents did the best they could with what they had, and I think having limited opportunities actually helped me be more creative with my time.
Anyway, back to the point… when we had them available sometime after getting a microwave, I ate hot dogs like this periodically in elementary school through college.
