Yep. And preparation. I always pan fry breakfast sausage since it renders
out a good amount of grease for gravy or eggs. I also enjoy sausage patties
more since they just need flipping to brown and cook evenly.
I'd never pan fry hot dogs. I'd steam, bbq-grill, broil or nuke them.
Breakfast sausage needs close contact heat, not hot dogs, imho.
