Hot dogs are a classic for a reason, and for many people, they are the go-to food for summer and barbecues. They're easy to make, taste good, and are available almost anywhere. No matter if you enjoy the classic ketchup and mustard toppings or prefer it loaded up with tomatoes, chili or sauerkraut, you can customize hot dogs however you like to make your perfect bite.

Using reviews, awards and accolades, and first-hand experience, LoveFood compiled a list of the "best hot dog joint" in each state, the eateries serving up everything from classic dogs and regional favorites to "crazy" options loaded with unique toppings.

According to the site, the best hot dog joint in all of Tennessee is D&B's Hot Dogs and Ice Cream , located at 8909 Oak Ridge Highway in Knoxville. Here's what the site had to say:

"Come to D & B's Hot Dogs and Ice Cream for exactly what its name suggests: hot dogs and ice cream. You can choose an old-school, Chicago-style dog or go for a tricked-out option such as the One Man with pulled pork and barbecue sauce. There are even buns in the ice cream special, with a split bun acting like the banana in a traditional banana split. People rate the fast service, and the joint has a strong local following, while still attracting customers from miles around."
