We were contacted by Sonic, America's Drive-In to do a review of their new Footlong Quarter Pound Coney Dog.
Sonic is also running a giveaway through our blog to entice our readers, as well as their patrons, to win a FREE $25 gift card, and be registered to win FREE Major League Baseball, or AAA baseball tickets.
Details of this giveaway will be at the end of this shortened review- so read on, then join our contest.
Anytown, USA
"Footlongs, who wants a footlong?" The quote from Dumb and Dumber that became true one summer night at Sonic.
Nestled inside a bun that was not overpowering in size to the proportion of the dog, was a blend of chili, cheese, and the dog itself. The chili had a pleasant lower spice level to it. If you are not a connoisseur of spicy chili, this is just potent enough to notice the spice but not too overpowering to eat. The chili is not thick enough to eat a good bowl of it, but wonderfully topped the length of the dog. Shredded cheddar cheese was lightly sprinkled over the top and melted the perfect amount to compliment the chili. With each bite of the dog, I could taste each individual component - the dog, chili, and cheese- but at the same time they blended so well on my palate.
I was shocked to see that a footlong was going to be sold for $2.99! In some situations cheaper means less quality, but not in this one. Any place that would sell a footlong- be it a street vendor, carnival, or restaurant daring enough to keep these in stock, could easily get twice this price. Kudos to Sonic for keeping the price low and enticing customers to get more than one of these for the bargain of a price.

Dear Hot Dog Guy...
A couple Sundays ago my husband and I stopped at the Sonic on Alpine and we both tried the foot long Coney! We both loved it! My husband even finished mine for me as it was too big for me and only $2.99! I would agree with your comments and description. It is a great value and very yummy!
The Blue Coconut slush is another thing I crave! I think anyone who likes coconut should give it a whirl! I love it! YUM!
Thanks and keep up a GREAT blog! Jenn
I could go for a Strawberry Slush...yum!!! However, since I am pregnant I seriously think I need one of these foot longs! haha
I usually get the Super Sonic combo with a large sweet tea. A cherry limeade is also a great happy hour treat.
Sonic and baseball tickets...a winning combination!
Oh so many choices.....I love the Sonic Burger comb, and the chili cheese dog. But my favorite time is Happy Hour!!!! I cannot wait to get one a Diet Cherry LimeAdes
My number one choice from Sonic is a cherry shake!
I want a grilled chicken salad and a hot fudge sundae!!! I'm hungry just thinking about it!
I love the Chicago dog coupled with a lemon-berry slush. Classic.
Personally my favorite item at Sonic is the Lo Cal Diet Cherry Limeade drink! Very refreshing...and best of all from 2-4 it is half off! Route 44 all the way!
I Love the Chili Cheese Coney, along with the Crispy Chicken Sandwich! Who could forget the Tots! I love driving up to Sonic with my roommate when class let's out for the night. YUM!
I LOVE Sonic's Diet Cherry Limeade. MMMMMM Good! I also love tots :)
I would order some tots with a side of burger...then wash them down with a shake.
Quarter Pound Coney....Need I say more?
M-n-M Sonic Blast sounds good!
Limeade.... Always, the limeade.
My Choice is the Mocha Java Chiller
