Okay so I'm not a native speaker and I hope I'm not the only one concerned with the use of IDEAL SIZE FOR BRATS

[–] Aremel@lemmy.zip 28 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Brats as in bratwurst as in sausage.

[–] GLOOMSDAY@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Speak for yourself. I am the WORST Brat, and this looks too small for me. Maybe the handle end?

[–] Siethron@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Pronounced Brawt, not Bratt.

[–] CandleTiger@programming.dev 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I don’t know where you’re from but it’s clearly not Chicago.

[–] SeptugenarianSenate@leminal.space 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Hot brot you got, Scott

[–] Saapas@piefed.zip 2 points 1 day ago

It's in the title, I'm fairly sure if that's the joke

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I see where the confusion is.

"Brat" can also refer to adults.

[–] ZMoney@lemmy.world 20 points 2 days ago (6 children)

I recently moved to the Czech Republic and found out that their hotdogs are already like this. The meat cylinder goes into a tube. It makes so much more sense than the sandwich!

Wikipedia says this approach originated in Germany, called ‘Würstchen im Schlafrock’. Afaik it's popular in Eastern Europe.

English-speakers may know it as ‘pigs in a blanket’.

[–] filcuk@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Pigs in blanket in the UK would mean cocktail sausage in bacon or pastry
It could be both, but I've never come across it

[–] SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Are 'cocktail sausages' made from a variety of meats boiled, cured, or smoked — shaken, but not quite stirred together, so to say?

[–] filcuk@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)
[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I think they're pretty normal sized!

[–] ITGuyLevi@programming.dev 2 points 1 day ago

Here in the southern US, pigs in a blanket is typically made from little cocktail smokies wrapped in about 1/3'rd of an uncooked pilsbury cresssant, then tossed in an oven until done. I really thought a sausage roll from Tesco would be similar but it was not... That's when I realized y'all have pretty bad food there (no offense), why did you guys start putting hotdogs in pizza crust? As an aside, I love how orderly everyone queues up for stuff there, almost like a country with functioning adults that teach their kids how to wait their turn.

Same in the regions of the US I’ve been to. Usually little cocktail weenies in pastry here, bacon wrapped is just called bacon wrapped, though.

[–] Johnmannesca@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Some folks call them Kolaches if you live far enough in the South US. Definitely a trend that followed with Eastern European migrations.

[–] roscoe@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

But where do you put the tomatoes, pickle, peppers, and onions?

[–] Starski@lemmy.zip -2 points 1 day ago

The tomatoes get turned into sauce for some pasta I'm cooking later, the pickles get munched on during a warm summer day, the peppers go into that pasta sauce I was talking about, and the onions go in there too, as none of those things belong on a hotdog

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

I should call her.

[–] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 1 points 2 days ago

We even have robots that assemble them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qCw5r0SqwQ

[–] GLOOMSDAY@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Wooooah giagantic hot dog....Too much mustard on yours for me, but wow!

[–] peetabix@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

We have those in Denmark too, they're called a fransk (French) hotdog.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 13 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (4 children)

Where would I find hotdog buns that aren't already cut open to even have a need for such a thing? Make my own? I suppose I should make my own sausage, too. Fuck that noise.

[–] FishFace@piefed.social 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Where I live hot dog buns are not pre-cut.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 17 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Where do you live? I'm coming over so we can drill the bunussy out together.

[–] FishFace@piefed.social 5 points 2 days ago

I feel it's unfair that bussy is already taken and this has to get the frankly third-rate "bunussy"

[–] YoFrodo@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

hoagie rolls man. I guess this is more of a "kolache" making tool.

[–] Tylerdurdon@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

You really haven't tasted hot dogs until you've spent half a paycheck on ingredients and tools, then another 14 hours prepping and cooking everything. It's almost as good as a microwaved Ballpark... Almost.

[–] postmateDumbass@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Surely my first attempt will be better than their decades of massive international corporate recipie.

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 1 points 1 day ago

Kaiser rolls. They're larger to hold the brat, and usually aren't cut.

[–] dimjim@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Must've had a Freudian slip because I swear that title said "Perfect size for butts"

[–] ryannathans@aussie.zone 4 points 3 days ago

Brats butts

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 4 points 2 days ago

Hotdog sounding

[–] hydrashok@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

There’s a food vendor called Wunder Wurst at a fall festival I attend, and they serve their brats like this with cheese sauce. It’s really good.

Not sure I’d want to go to all the trouble with making it at home, though. Regular cut buns work just fine for me.

[–] Raiderkev@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Puka Dog in Kauai does as well. Highly recommend. Theirs have tropical relish and spicy sauce. It's so damn good.

[–] hydrashok@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago

Oooh — the spicy sauce is intriguing. Love some good heat. Maybe next year I should bring some hot sauce with me to throw in. :D

[–] mysticalone@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Why does it look like a dog dick

[–] Holytimes@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

This is why phallic things should not be red

[–] Macchi_the_Slime@piefed.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Still not as visceral of a reaction as the one I had to a dude using a speculum for the same thing and I don't even have the proper equipment to have experience with one of those.

[–] LycanGalen@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Oh, but there are speculums for all. If you have an orifice, western medicine has figured out how to pry it open.

[–] Macchi_the_Slime@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Fair, "typically" have experience then?

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You can pay most doctors on the side to pry open your orifices, even if isn't covered by insurance.

Free will ~~was a mistake~~is such a wondrous thing.
