Few things are better than a hot dog on a sunny, summer day. There’s something special about the scent of a backyard grill, the sizzle at a ballgame, or the simplicity of a picnic lunch. July is National Hot Dog Month, and it’s this summer staple’s time to shine! At Seward Co-op, we’re celebrating all the flavorful forms the beloved sausage takes. From traditional franks to plant-based picks to local brats, there’s an option for every plate.
Hot Diggity Dog: July is National Hot Dog Month!
Traditional Dogs
If you’re craving the classic, look no further than our selection of premium franks. Try 100% grass-fed beef hot dogs from Thousand Hills or Applegate for juicy, antibiotic-free links. Whether you like your links charred with mustard or loaded with relish and onions, find your favorite in our Meat & Seafood department.
Plant-Based Picks
Going meatless? You won’t miss a thing with our plant-based options. If you’re vegan, vegetarian, or just trying to be more mindful of your meat consumption, we’ve got sizzling alternatives like Field Roast’s plant-based hot dogs and Beyond Meat’s Hot Italian Style and Original Brat links. No matter how you top it, these veggie dogs will be sure to stand out at your next cookout.
Savory Sausages
While not technically a hot dog, bratwursts are the robust, flavorful cousin to all-American classic and certainly deserve a shout-out. For something special, try beer brats from Peterson Craft Meats, a small-scale, multi-generational family farm committed to sustainability, respectful animal care, and exceptional product quality. You’ll also find Seward-made sausages, prepared in-house by talented staff that offer local flavor you can taste.
