Shaw's Side Sliced Hot Dog
What it is
This is a pre-sliced hot dog designed for convenience. The slicing is done lengthwise, creating a channel that is ideal for holding toppings. It is a processed meat product typically made from beef, pork, or poultry, seasoned and cured. The side slicing means it is ready to be filled and heated, saving a step in preparation. It comes in a package for easy storage and use.
