Colorado's Most Famous Hot Dog

The National Hot Dog and Sausage Council, yes that is a real organization, has a list of the most famous regional hot dogs. I was surprised to see that Colorado was on the list. Maybe I just have not been paying attention.

The Rockie Dog is officially Colorado's regional hot dog. You most likely have had this hot dog while enjoying a Rockies game in person. The hot dog comes with grilled peppers, onions, and kraut. Plus the hot dog is a food long.
