We love our hometown so much we created the Twin Cities Dog: Two hot dogs with double cheese (two kinds, of course), wrapped in Crescents and served on (yep, you guessed it) two sticks.

I'm pretty sure you're supposed to brush it on them after assembling and before placing them in the oven...but I think they forgot to put that in the instructions.
