Here you go folks! This hot dog sells for $145.49!!

"So, just what does $145.49 buy, dog-wise?

The hot dog: An 18-inch, three-quarter-pound all-beef frank in a pork casing, custom-made by Red Hot Chicago sausage-maker. It's grilled in the fat from the bacon.

The bun: A 15-inch herbs-and-olive-oil focaccia roll custom-made by boutique coffee-maker/bakery Old Soul of Sacramento. It's smeared with Italian white truffle butter and toasted on the grill.

The bacon: Sourced from a small farm in New Hampshire, it's marinated in maple syrup and double-smoked over apple and cherry woods.

Toppings: The moose cheese, plus Pommery whole-grain mustard from Meaux, France, garlic-herb mayonnaise, caramelized sauteed shallots, mixed baby greens, chopped tomato, dried sweetened cranberries, ground peppercorns and fruity balsamic vinaigrette from the Chef's Olive Mix store in Old Sacramento."

    For a fraction of the price, you can have a Wonder Weiner
    The Incredible Wonder Weiner
    this amazing, succulent king of hotdogs is the talk of the town! We split a polish dog in half, place a slice of bacon and grill to perfection, then we stuff it with cream cheese, green chilies and onions, serve it on a toasted bun spread with mayotard and waa-la, but due to the artery clogging potential, we recommend only one per week!

    Only $7.95, chips or fritos included.
