Everybody loves to see the hot dog cart coming. Hot dogs are the all-American snack. They fit easily in the hand, require no grace at all to consume and can be wolfed down in a matter of seconds. Kids and adults enjoy them, and they're even better when you don't have to cook them yourself.

Purchasing a hot dog machine can boost your sales, whether you own a concession stand, fast food business or a freestanding hot dog cart. If you're looking at hot dog machines, consider the following:

1. Do you want a hot dog grill or a hot dog steamer?
2. What capacity do you need for your hot dog machine?
3. Do you want brand-new or used hot dog equipment?



Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Purchase hot dog machines for your business


Having a hot dog grill is one way to keep your customers coming back. There's nothing quite like the taste of a grilled hot dog. While more expensive than hot dog steamers, a hot dog grill is a great option for a hot dog machine, and serves up a taste that is not like any other.

I recommend: Star Broil-O Dog Hot Dog Grill is available in two different models, one holding 36 dogs and 32 buns or a smaller hot dog grill that holds 18 dogs and 12 buns. Think about a hot dog roller for your business. The Hot Rod Hot Dog Roller Grill holds 20 hot dogs, with optional bun cabinets and sneeze guards available.

Please your customers with a hot dog steamer


When you're looking for hot dog equipment, a countertop hot dog steamer may be a less expensive option than a hot dog grill, and may also hold more hot dogs to help with the big summer crowds. A hot dog steamer is also a safer option than a grill if you have teenagers staffing your concession stand.

I recommend: Check out the Nemco hot dog steamer, which holds 150 hot dogs and 30 buns. The steamer comes in a version with a low-water indicator.

Make a venture into vending with a hot dog machine on wheels


Are you ready to take your hot dog business to the streets? Selling from a hot dog cart is a great business idea for city-dwellers.

I recommend: Buy the All-American hot dog cart in New York style or Chicago style from Sabrett Frankfurter Carts, America's top hot dog cart manufacturer.

Tips & Tactics
Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide

  • Sell more from your hot dog machines by offering an alternative to the traditional hot dog, such as bratwurst, Italian sausage, or kosher options.
