Taco Reho turns National Hot Dog Day into their own Hot Dog Month with rotating menu🌭

When you think about the Delaware chain Taco Reho, California-inspired burritos and tacos wrapped in warm, house-made corn tortillas probably come to mind.

But for all of July ― including National Hot Dog Day on the 17th ― their rock 'n' roll-themed, homegrown restaurants in Rehoboth Beach (18784 Coastal Highway) and Middletown (100 Sandhill Drive) will be spotlighting one of America's favorite summertime bites: hot dogs.

Taco Reho launched a "Dog Daze of Summer" promotion Monday featuring four unique foot-long hot dogs, which will be unleashed all month long.

Some will look familiar. Others will be unlike anything you've tried before. All have a Mexican twist, thanks to Taco Reho chef/owner Billy Lucas, whose business partners include La Vida Hospitality.

To preserve the wow factor, Lucas declined to release photos of the three new weenies.

Each week, a different $9 grilled beef hot dog will be offered. Here they are:

July 1-7: Chili Dog

A foot-long with chili con carne, Monterey jack cheese, yellow mustard and chopped white onion on a Martin's potato roll.

July 8-14: Corn Dog

This ain't your state fair corn dog: a cornmeal-battered hot dog on a stick with a side of yellow mustard and chipotle mayo.

July 15-21: Danger Dog

Ripped straight from Taco Reho's regular menu: a bacon-wrapped hot dog with black beans, Monterey jack cheese, avocado, yellow mustard, chipotle mayo, pico de gallo, pickled red onions, queso fresco and cilantro.

July 22-31: Elote Dog

Mexican street corn gets involved: a hot dog with grilled Freeman's Farm sweet corn, ancho chile aioli, cotija cheese, cilantro and lime on a Martin's potato bun.

'Dachshund Derby' on National Hot Dog Day

And in honor of National Hot Dog Day, Taco Reho will host their “Dachshund Derby” from 5 to 8 p.m. at each location on July 17.
