Will Join Signature Dish — Big One Meatball — As Unique and Tasty Dishes Found Only at TSS
TALLADEGA, AL – Who let the dogs out! Woof! Woof! Fans will be singing and racing to the concession stands at Talladega Superspeedway to sink their teeth into the track’s new signature hot dog – the incredibly delicious Talla-Mento Dogwich – which is set to debut during the track’s upcoming tripleheader race weekend, April 29-May 31, for the General Tire 200, Sparks Energy 300 and GEICO 500.
The mouth-watering Talla-Mento Dogwich is a grilled, all beef Hot Dog split into two and placed on top of melted Yancey’s Fancy buffalo cheddar cheese, topped with a generous helping of Pimiento Cheese, placed in between two slices of Texas toast (grilled to golden brown) and cut down the middle.
Talladega is cutting no corners on this dish, using Yancey’s Fancy New York’s Artisan signature spicy buffalo cheese and cheddar cheese to drive home that perfect flavor for fans’ taste buds. Yancey’s Fancy has specialized in hand crafted cheeses for long over sixty plus years, with a reputation for producing high quality products.
“We have the best and most competitive form of racing in the world here at Talladega Superspeedway, and now we have the most unique, tasty and ‘big’ menu items anywhere,” said Talladega Superspeedway Chairman Grant Lynch. “At Talladega, ‘Size Matters” and our fans won’t be disappointed with the incredibly large Talla-Mento Dogwich. It joins ‘TheBig One Meatball’ as the most creative and delicious food items at any sporting event in the world.”
The world-renowned “The Big One” Meatball, the biggest and most unique of its kind, weighs in at over a pound. It has a center of blended Mozzarella and Pepper Jack Cheeses mixed with smoked BBQ Pulled Pork and a little house BBQ sauce for an extra kick. It is then covered by a layer of Ground Beef, rolled in a panko bread crumb and parmesan mix before being deep fried to a golden brown. And, there’s more – it is then topped off with a dollop of BBQ sauce and a spaghetti garnish.
The Talla-Mento Dogwich ($5) will be sold in the O.V. Hill North and South Grandstands as well as the Tri-Oval Tower and all Infield Locations. The Big One Meatball($13) will be sold at concession stands in the Gadsden and O.V. Hill South Grandstands, along with the Tri-Oval Tower along the frontstretch.
