Italian Hot Dog

Italian hot dog was invented in Newark, New Jersey and consists of large loaves of pizza bread (with a hole in the middle) which are quartered, sliced, then filled with deep-fried sausages, onions, peppers, and crispy fried potatoes that are soft in the middle.

The tender pizza bread holds all of the ingredients together, soaks up some of the grease, and is typically baked by local Italian bakers, hence the name of this unique hot dog variety.
