What is Dogtoberfest?

Football season is here, and what goes better with football than a delicious, hot off the grill, hot dog? According to a survey commissioned by RaceTrac, three in four Americans believe hot dogs are an essential part of sporting event tailgating.* Whoa! So what is Dogtoberfest? Well, RaceTrac tells me that their customers consume about 1.7 million pounds of hot dogs every year. That’s a lot of hot dogs friends. And since hot dogs are such big deal, RaceTrac is celebrating all things roller grill with its first-ever Dogtoberfest promotion including a declaration of the hot dog as the official Fall tailgating food with a chance to win a trip for two to Coney Island to judge the 2018 Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Championship.

On November 19th, the brand will be celebrating its roller grill line up, including Nathan’s 100% Premium All Beef Hot Dogs, sausages, the limited-time Guinness Beer Brat, delicious taquitos and tamales, and of course, its unlimited toppings bar! So what kind of hot dog can you actually make?

What is Dogtoberfest?

Roller Grill

• The roller grill is one of RaceTrac’s largest food service categories. Quality, variety and value have driven year-over-year growth in this category for the past five years and continues.

RaceTrac introduces limited time offer (LTO) products on the grill on a quarterly basis to help keep the offer fresh and fun – including our current LTO: the Guiness Beer Brat.

All roller grill items can be topped with old favorites like ketchup and mustard, or mixed up with new additions like onions, jalapenos and nacho cheese from our expanded toppings bar.

My perfect hot dog combo.

 

I am not too fancy of a hot dogger. I like some relish, banana peppers, mustard and ketchup. However, I love jalapeño-cheese dog. Sooo good! So that with those toppings. A juicy bite of hot dog heaven!
