I'm an east coast girl living in a west coast world. I grew up in New England before moving to SoCal for several years. I then lived in NYC or a year before moving to AZ in 2009. I worked in the entertainment industry for many years of my adult life and have a deep love for photography, writing, and traveling around the U.S. as well as to far-flung locations around the world. Travel is my life and writing about it is a dream!
The Grand Canyon State is known for many things — natural wonders, epic hiking trails, and scenery — just some of the reasons why I love living here. And it’s also known for some incredible regional specialties like fry bread, Mexican food, and Sonoran hot dogs. Now, regular hot dogs are great and all but a Sonoran hot dog…well, there’s a reason why they’re so popular here. If you don’t know what a Sonoran hot dog is, it’s a perfect creation made with a bacon-wrapped hot dog set inside a bolillo-style hot dog bun and topped with pinto beans, onions, tomatoes, and other toppings that include anything from jalepeños to mayo, mustard, and/or salsa. Here’s where to get the best Sonoran hot dogs in Arizona.
