Every year around this time, I start to crave a hot dog. For me, the perfect dog is the classic all-beef frankfurter, grilled to a blistery brown and black mottle, topped with yellow mustard and relish, and served on a soft, sweet bun...

Cheap, satisfying and infinitely versatile, there’s a good reason that the humble hot dog holds a place of honour at so many summer cookouts.
