We tried eight different cocktail franks from seven brands—and there was one clear winner.
, buffalo chicken dip, and other salt-heavy snacks. You can always make them from scratch, but buying them frozen from the grocery store still yields delicious results. With the Super Bowl fast approaching, we were curious to see which brand would yield the absolute best cocktail franks.
Trader Joe’s puts a spin on pigs in a blanket by sprinkling the puff pastry with Parmesan cheese. The move adds a lot of flavor and sets them apart from others on the market; however, we wondered how they would pair with classic condiments like mustard and ketchup. “A little different from standard pigs in a blanket, but the pastry is puffy and crispy,” associate digital editor Megan Soll said. “The dog is well done and it’s a great package overall.” Hebrew National is also known for its pigs in a blanket, which are made from kosher beef. Editors felt that this brand had the best-tasting hot dog out of the bunch, but what kept it from being number one was the pastry—it wasn’t as flaky or flavorful as some of its competitors.
We also asked our editors about their favorite ways to zhuzh up store-bought pigs in a blanket, in case you’re in the mood to experiment. Here are their top picks:Try adding smoked paprika for depth of flavor, or, sprinkling on everything bagel seasoning. One of the brands we tried, , has pastry-wrapped mini hot dogs that already come with everything seasoning on them if you want to give it a test drive.You have a few options here. We like mixing mustard, ketchup, and mayonnaise together for a dipping sauce; fish sauce mayonnaise or chili crisp mayonnaise would also work beautifully. TLDR: grab mayo, and you’ll be off to a good start.
