UPDATE: Hot Dog Debbie’s Website Now Has Welcome Message
Posted on July 9th 2009 by Jillian Madison

Last week, we let you know that Food Network Magazine was pimping Hot Dog Debbie’s (NFNS contestant Debbie Lee’s new KOREAN hot dog restaurant in California). When we wrote the original article, hotdogdebbies.com only pointed to a tacky GoDaddy page. But there’s reason to rejoice! Now, the website has a tacky logo and a rambling welcome message that was clearly written by someone who has an unhealthy obsession with capital letters:

hd-debbies-site

American, back-east, southern, Korean… wow. I don’t think she mentioned enough geographical regions, do you? Why doesn’t she just say, “these hot dogs have a lot of shit on them that OTHER PEOPLE CAME UP WITH.”

And on another note, I know what a “Korean Kick” is, but just what the hell is “Southern Spirit?” Sounds like something floating around a graveyard in Georgia, or a drink Sandra Lee would serve up during cocktail time on an episode of Semi-Homemade.

I like my hot dogs to taste like hot dogs… not like eggs or syrup or seaweed or grits or whatever other crap they’ll be slathering on them. But maybe that’s just me.

We’ll let you know when the website goes live, and if they come up with a real logo – or just stick with that tacky font.

    Kind of resembles PF Chang’s typeface… ha.

    REAL shocker that Shamu would own a hot dog restaurant. Geesh. I wouldn’t mind something deep fried (like a corn dog, kinda), wrapped in bacon, put in a bun, served up with mayo and nacho cheese, then Carolina style it (you know all about Southern hot dogs, right, Debbie???) with cole slaw, mustard, pickles, and chili. Please don’t forget my ketchup or my side of bacon cheese fries with sour cream. :D Hell, if you’re gonna indulge, do it right! (Then again, it would take at least 8-10 of me to equal one Debbie…)

  3. Jenna80 says:

    Haha not to mention the “irony” of a hot dog restaurant given the stereotypes behind some Asian foods (Chinese, Vietnamese, etc).

  4. *Di* says:

    Maybe they’ll have Kimchi instead of sauerkraut? Or other Korean condiments and sauces?
    I guess Kosher is out of the question.

    There are lots of Korean-Americans in L.A. – wonder if they’ll buy it?
    Uh Oh . . .

  5. DesignerJeans says:

    “American, back-east, southern, Korean Kick”

    Jesus. Mary And Joseph.

    WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?

    I need to see hospital x-rays. Because if THIS does not prove that her getting hit with that oven tray knocked ALL of the rest of what little common sense she had, out of her… then nothing will…

  6. Byrdie says:

    I’m still scratching my head on hot dogs. If you have the resources to open a restaurant, why would you pick hot dogs? Anyway, maybe the Korean Kick is what she does to the “dog” before it becomes hot. (arf arf, if you get my drift) Southern spirit? Uh, a nip on the old Jack Daniels before or after you kick the dog. I don’t know. This chick is whack.

  7. orchidgal says:

    @DesignerJeans, I’m with you. What the hey??!! It’s almost as if they just randomly threw out phrases from a word generator.

  8. Megan says:

    What is the point of having a hot dog restaurant? Unless she’s hand-making her own sausages – which I doubt – there’s next to no actual cooking going on there!

  9. Feikhal Madhur says:

    Another world famous Food Network whoring of one it’s “next” stars. This might be an alltime low.

    Looks good on them. Total Amateurs.

  10. HeWhoseNameMustNotBeSpoken says:

    Hot Dog Debbie’s – “inspired by an old back-East tradition”

    Is the “Korean kick” that your weiner, er, hot dog will be “serviced” by the under-age Korean girls that staff the joint? Is there an alternate menu @ hot dog debbie’s featuring illicit “back East” backdoor delights?

    I smell massage parlor…

  11. Daria says:

    All I can say is “WTH?” Hot dogs have nothing to do with being either Korean or Southern. This woman is really reaching. Some people will do anything for money – remind you of Paula Deen?

  12. Jenna80 says:

    Daria…even Pauler has enough class NOT to open a hot dog joint! Don’t get me wrong, every now and then I love a good hot dog, but as others have said, WTH????? Sorry, Nathan’s has already outdone you, Ms Kimchee.

  13. Lana says:

    Yeah. I’m wondering where the Random mid-sentence Capitalization came From?
    :-D

    “… infused with Southern Spirit” Maybe that means there’s a shot of Southern Comfort in each dog? Jack Daniels?

    Bourbon Dogs! It’ll be a hit!

  14. Scoobie-Doobie-Doo says:

    Has she confused Los Angeles with Lousianna — being that they’re both abreviated to “LA”? Maybe that’s why we haven’t seen one iota of any southern recipes. She’s cookin’ Californian!

    Seriously – does anyone eat a hot dog from anything other than a street vendor? Can’t wait for the crash and burn of this one.

  15. Jenna80 says:

    Scoobie-Doobie-Doo..outside of my own “kitchen/grill” on Super Bowl Sunday and street vendors of which we don’t have many here ( go to the Home Depot parking lot, that’s it!), no I have NEVER and would NEVER!

  16. Hakuna Fritatta says:

    Since I’m busy doing whois lookups to find out who’s sending me porn spam…looks as though it’s been in the works for a while. Apparently FN began pimping KorDeb’s hot dog joint a couple of months ago.

  17. JSS says:

    Huh…sounds like a porno….Hotdog Debbie

  18. blingdangie says:

    Southern Spirit and Korean kick – notice she gives “kick” a lowercase K and “spirit” an uppercase S.

    Pay someone to edit your chit please.

  19. RaleighRob says:

    Hotdogs topped with grits and kimchi with a side of chitlins?

  20. Feco Arse says:

    If only TFN would hire me as a consultant! Only a pompous British prick could understand the Zeitgeist of American telly viewers.

  21. vegfoodie says:

    What’s all this talk of kimchee. Korean Debbie has repeatedly and proudly told us that a) she’s Korean, but b) she does not know how to make kimchee.

  22. Jarod says:

    Oh I think Jake and I would love to eat at Hot Dog Debbies.

    What a brilliant idea. Boy are Bob and Susie ever original with their ideas. I must tell them after I finish cleaning their apartments. They pay me $8.00 hr. Hey I can now buy 2 Debbie dogs.Oh wait, I never have been on a plane and Debbie Dogs are in LA. Oh well, maybe if she expands to the East coast I can take the bus to her spot.

  23. Katie says:

    @Megan – Exactly. “No cooking involved” pretty much sums up the entire sentiment behind marketing any of these yahoos.

  24. UGH says:

    The latest buzz is that Aunt Sandy will be doing all the table scapes with a bonus scape for the hot dog cart….all with items found at the Dollar store!

    Guido is to do a review for his triple-D show, with the emphasis on the LAST D!!

    Should be interesting…..

  25. Kittykitty says:

    I’m sure Ina will tell her to make sure she uses the GOOD wieners while Bobby Flay teaches her his mad grillin’ skillz. In honor of Aunt Sandy’s tablescapes Debbie can give Sandra her own hot dog – injected full of liquor (any kind will do), marinated in liquor (again …) and served with a delicate liquor reduction. It comes, of course, with a big glass of wine, preferably from a box. Giiiiaaahhhhddaahhh will teach her to pronounce anything Italian correctly because, God knows, people like her – what is she, Asian or something? – won’t get it right. I’m sure all the FN execs will be suitably impressed.

  26. jim says:

    Oh by the way, did you mention that she is Korean?

  27. Freezezzy says:

    Might as well just change the name to ‘Debbie Does Hotdogs’ now. It’s the only way people will remember it when it does crash and burn.

  28. Patrina says:

    LMAO @ Freezezzy. Hot dogs, the concept if just so bland. Even sausages have more of a ring than hot dogs. But if we tell her that this idea won’t work, then she’ll find some way to blame everyone else.

  29. Millie says:

    Wow! She’s Korean? I thought she was French! Maybe Debcakes can wrap a wiener in a slice of Pepe’s pizza! And fry it. Thank Gawd my sis and I ate a vegetarian stir fry for dinner. We’re not Korean, but dinner was more appetizing than anything served by L’il Debbie.

  30. Cat Chow says:

    That “Korean” Chick is confused in more ways than one. Why over-complicate such a simple thing as a hot dog.

    But then again, this is the FN. Pass the soju.

  31. RD says:

    Korean Kick = that picture of Debbie being kicked in the face by a martial artist on here earlier

  32. Kael says:

    Well, I for one am so happy they put up all of that extra information on their website now. Who needs to travel to Korea or the south when you can have a hot dog?

    Piling crap on top of crap does not make good food! What’s next? Aunt Sandy’s Crock-pot Cookery and Bar? At least there you could wash away the taste of salty toppings and unknown animal parts with some tequila.

  33. Andrea says:

    SHE GOT SAVED AGAIN!!!!!!!!!! She downright lied!! about doing other people’s food and they KEPT HER ANYWAY!!!! I WILL NOT continue to watch Food Network if DEBBIE LEE gets her own show!!!!!!!!!

  34. Auntie M. says:

    Has anyone noticed that the new advertising for Throwdown seems to show darling Debbie being propositioned by Bobby Flay? Maybe I’m wrong, but it sure does seem to be her near the end of the commercial in “previous years” episode clips.

  35. Laura says:

    Ah, her inner gourmand has surfaced.

    Is it good that seaultosoul dot com is still available? Yep, I just checked.

  36. Kay Clements says:

    If this is for real I am extremely disappointed….I thought last year was probably rigged and definitely the year before, but this is absolutely horrific….do scruples not matter to any of these people…I can bet it will not be a success…everyone I have talked with said they didn’t care if her food was good or not, that she showed extreme poor self centered judgement….what a wonderful partner she would make….wouldn’t everyone want to support and invest in someone like that…NOT!!!!!! NOT NOW!!!!!definitely NEVER!!!!!! I will have to re-evaluate my need for Food Network…..After tonight I want every recipe that Melissa cooked…I love ratatouii and had never heard her order of cooking the veggies….I will be trying that very soon….my husband who doesn’t cook but watches with me and supports my cooking agreed…he doesn’t like chicken but would love to try hers…the potatoes and that final pastry..oh my I can taste them now….and how brilliant not to put blame on anyone about the over salting the orzo, but just toning it down with some other and changing the time she served which dish….she is definitely the keeper…I can see her passion for cooking and desire for making something delicious that everyone can enjoy…Jeffery I like but he made a statement tonight that turned me off tremendously….he wants an empire….like Emeril…well when Emeril started he wasnt planning an empire, it just happened because of his love for food and entertaining..that was a bummer statement…also I think he cooks like so many that are on already….Melissa cooks beautiful delicious dishes….and I would watch each day as I do Giada and Ina…..I started on Julia Childs, Graham Kerr and Martha Stewart…..I have watched cooking shows forever…please dont let us down…..not necessarily wanting to be entertained, but educated…..

  37. steve says:

    My wife and I watch FN. We are Korean. We think Debbie is a disgrace to the korean community. She lies and when the lying doesn’t work she crys. Kalbi Jim should be tender not tough.
