r.i. hot weiners: gaggers (gaggahs), weenies
(1 rating)
As far as Rhode Island regional cuisine goes, hot weiners are probably the most famous fast food delicacy there is. RI hot weiners have nicknames, such as gaggers (gaggahs), belly busters, weeners, and weenies. A weiner is typically made from a small, thin frankfurter made of veal and pork, thus giving it a different taste from a traditional hot dog made of beef. Once placed in a steamed bun, the wiener is topped with a meat sauce seasoned with a myriad of spices and covered in finely chopped onions, celery salt and mustard. Wieners with all the toppings are called "all the way"!
