New Jersey Ripper Dog

Deep-fried Thumann's hot dog, known as a "ripper" because its skin tears and crinkles when it is deep-fried. The oil bath turns the pork-and-beef link rugged, dark, and chewy on the outside, while the interior remains soft and juicy. Garnished with mustard and/or spicy-sweet relish. Choose between "ripper" (standard) or "cremated" (well-done). Served on a toasted bun.
