 While summer's our busiest season, we like to take a break and go camping and boating at Sutton Lake! If you see us out on the lake, please say "Hey."
Family news: Alissa, who turned 21 recently, is working as a manger at our restaurants when she's not on the road. If you go to the Applebee's in Summersville, Linsey might be your waitress. And Guy has been working as the chili boxer.

On Independence Day, Americans will enjoy 150 million hot dogs, enough to stretch from Washington, D.C., to L.A. over five times. *** U.S. soldiers in military posts
around the world from Fort Myers in Arlington, Va., to Okinawa, Japan,
to Aqaba, Jordan, consumed 2.4 million hot dogs last year. ***
 During Hot Dog Season, Memorial Day to Labor Day, Americans typically consume 7 billion hot dogs or 818 hot dogs consumed every second. Source: National Hot Dog & Sausage Council |

Q&A
When I make hot dogs at home, they don't taste
as good as what
I buy at The Custard Stand!
What am I doing wrong?
 We get this question all the time!
There are a few reasons: 1. At
The Custard Stand restaurants, we heat the weiners in hot water and
then toss them in the chili. All that simmering adds extra flavor to the
dog. 2. The hot dog buns
at the restaurants are steamed and warm. To steam buns at home, wrap
the bun in a damp paper towel and microwave for 10-15 seconds. Or put a
colander or dry rack on top of a pot of boiling water. Cover with a lid
for 20-30 seconds. ***
Can the restaurants accommodate large groups?
Do you need
advance notice? I wanted to bring our vacation Bible school classes by.
There's around
50 of us, including the grown-ups!
Yes, we can! Thanks for
asking. We would like a week's notice so we can make sure to have plenty
of food and plenty of staff on hand. We welcome all kinds of groups. A church youth group from North Carolina is coming by. They're on a mission trip. And
the Harley Davidson riders club in Charleston is planning a ride to our
Webster Springs location soon. Give us a call in the office at (304) 847-2942 or email us. A week's notice is recommended. Click here to see menus! |
