Thank you for the input!
Definitely the bun has a big impact. Since I moved to a rural area, I've been very disappointed with the buns offered with the local gas station hot dogs (not that I have high standards for that). The right bun, properly presented, would definitely enhance the experience. I would love to find a local baker who could provide that.
For some reason, without traveling a decent distance, no grocery store within a pretty decent traveling distance offers any of the big name dogs other than Oscar Meyer. I hadn't considered ordering online. At my nearest grocery store I did once find some kind of "German snapper" dog that came out very well, but I haven't been able to find it again since (despite repeatedly buying what I thought was the same brand).
As for cook, I've always preferred them made with a dry heat, such as with a grill. In fact, the aforementioned Hot Diggity Dog used a griddle to cook theirs. I used to use a convection oven, but my wife got me basically this, which has enhanced the experience for me.
I appreciate the recommendations and will look into the ones that fit my preferences - thank you!
