Yank's Franks and Raye's Mustard of Maine

Yank's Franks is searching for the very best toppings for our customers' hot dogs. We didn't have far to go to find some fantastic mustards.

Raye's Mustard is America's only stone ground mustard. As luck would have it, Raye's is located right here in Down East Maine.

In the photo are two of their more than twenty varieties of award winning-mustards (on a couple of pretty great hot dogs).

The Sweet & Spicy lives up to its name. It changes the hot dog into an awesome taste sensation. For me, the sweetness was a pleasant surprise for my hot dog and the spice made it oh so nice.

Top Dog is specifically meant for topping your dog. Raye's bills this mustard as "a dog's best friend," I say it's a hot dog lover's best friend. Nice and spicy.

Not included in the photo is the variety I sampled last evening, Down East Schooner. Raye's has been grinding this yellow mustard since 1900. It has won Blue Ribbons at the FDM International Mustard Competition and The Napa Valley Mustard Competition.

Who the heck ever thought there was a Mustard Competition, let alone two of them? This job is really hard work. I'm popping a Nexium and heading off to bed.

Frankly, we (will) serve the BEST dogs!
