These budget-friendly beef hot dogs don’t skimp on quality.
Cheap hot dogs have always been synonymous with low-quality mystery meat, but these days, shoppers have access to value options where they don’t have to compromise on quality. Yes, there are fancy gourmet hot dogs that cost more, but there are also plenty of budget-friendly options that shoppers love. So which ones are worth buying on your next grocery run? Here are five brands of affordable hot dogs made with real beef.
Member’s Mark Beef Hot Dogs

Member mark Beef hot dogs are known for their quality and value (check your local warehouse for exact prices). “These are some of the best beef hot dogs I’ve ever cooked. They brown like the red ones and have great flavor,” said one buyer.
Franks at Kirkland Signature Beef Dinner


Franks at Kirkland Signature Beef Dinner are another affordable option (like with Sam’s Club, check prices with your local warehouse). “The best beef hot dog I’ve ever tasted! Better than Nathans, Ball Park and so many others who claim to be the best tasting!” » said one buyer. The $1.50 Costco food court hot dog/soda combo can’t be beat for value.
Hebrew National Beef Franks


Hebrew National Beef franks are a great, affordable option, especially when they’re on sale. Walmart shoppers can get a family pack of 20 dogs for $15.94, which matches the price online, so your local store is probably cheaper. “These are the best hot dogs available anywhere at a reasonable price,” said one shopper. “There may be boutique dogs that are tastier, but their availability is limited and their prices are ridiculous.”
Nathan’s famous skinless beef franks


Nathan’s is another fantastic choice for an affordable all-beef hot dog ($12.97 for 14 at Walmart for online prices). The brand is loved for its taste and quality, and is a must-have when on sale. Some buyers even eat them cold, they are so good!
Oscar Mayer Classic Beef Franks


Oscar Mayer Classic Beef Franks are a great value 100% beef hot dog, about $7.99 for 10. “Great taste and very juicy. Good sale price,” one shopper said of these hot dogs with no additives or by-products. It is definitely one of the best budget options.
Trader Joe’s Raw Beef Hot Dogs


Trader Joe’s Uncured beef hot dogs are a great value: $3.99 for six all-beef hot dogs at my local TJ’s in Los Angeles. “Our all-beef, unsalted hot dogs contain no nitrates or added nitrates (except those naturally present in sea salt and cultured celery powder) and cook wonderfully on the grill, in the pan, or submerged in boiling water (or beer, we might add!),” the chain says.
Simply Nature Organic Raw Beef Hot Dogs


Simply nature Unsalted organic beef hot dogs at Aldi cost $4.39 for six dogs. “These gluten-free hot dogs are non-GMO and are made from 100% grass-fed beef. The beef used for these tasty hot dogs is made without antibiotics or added hormones. There are also no added nitrates or nitrites, so you’re sure to get the best quality hot dogs at the prices you love,” the brand says.
