Glee Club Bacon and Cheese Hot Dogs

Bacon wrapped hot dogs stuffed with cheese. Artery-clogging heaven. I remember these as a kid being called a "Swankie Frankie" and ordering them at our family's favorite hangout, The Nugget. Because we had six kids (sound familiar?) we always got the big semi circular booth in the back of the restaurant. Good Times, yes, then after dinner we would go home and watch "Good Times." But, I digress, and you can't go home again, so these were grilled on foil to keep the cheese from oozing everywhere.



Episode Note: "The Drummer Boy"  Bobby and Peter both try out for the school Glee Club, but only Peter makes the cut. Depressed, Bobby takes up the drums to bolster his spirits, but drives the family and the neighbors insane in the process. Meanwhile, all is not well for Peter. Apparently the guys on his football team are teasing him for being a "canary."  Peter is about to quit Glee, unable to take the razzing, when football great Deacon Jones drops by the playing field. Jones reveals to the team that he too is a choir boy and quickly has them all singing a different tune. Back home, Mike and Carol finally convince Bobby to abandon the drums for a new instrument. However, much to their chagrin,  he takes up the bugle, playing reveille,  becoming the boogie-woogie bugle boy of Company B(rady).
