do franks have gluten
Historians believe the first frankfurters were just sausages served in bread for an imperial coronation in Frankfurt, Germany. Today, they’re called wieners, hot dogs or franks. No matter what you call them or how you serve them, franks are a popular dish all year long. They warm up quickly on the grill or stove for a satisfying meal. One of the first questions most people ask about hot dogs is if they taste good. Bar-S franks have been America’s best-selling frank for more than 10 years.
Hot Dog Ingredients
We know that ingredients are the most important element of a good hot dog. Our philosophy is to use quality, wholesome ingredients to make the best franks we can. Franks are basically a sausage, which means they have a mixture of meat and seasonings. With the gluten-free diet trend, more people wonder what type of fillers go into making Bar-S franks. Here’s a list of which of our franks are gluten free.
