Bill Oakley’s Signature Summer Dog

This snappy Weisswurst–hot dog mash-up was crafted in collaboration with the artisan butchers at @zennerspdx. After extensive tasting of the test batch, Bill Oakley confirms its delicious flavor and perfect snap. Although any topping works, a bold, high-octane mustard truly brings out the best in every bite.

Inspired by the finest regional flavors he discovered on his travels, this recipe pays homage to the very best sausages and hot dogs sampled across America.
