On the third day of Christmas, my true love gave to me, a Sonoran hot dog from El Güero Canelo.

You deserve a Sonoran hot dog

Are you a slave to the Fitbit? Know a frustrated flexitarian? Few pleasures are greater than the bacon-wrapped Sonoran hot dog. Mustard, tomato, jalapeno sauce, grilled and raw onions, a scattering of pinto beans and a serpentine of mayonnaise make for a whirl of colors and flavors on a puffy bun. Might as well make it two.

Star readers are loyal to hot-dog trucks at Sixth and 22nd, Country Club and Lee, 12th and Drexel, Park and 36th, and oh, about 96 others. Brick-and-mortar rivals El Guero Canelo and BK’s have fierce fans, too.
