Corndogs as a side? Oh hell yes! I didn't think something like that could be pulled off.Two things come to mind. One, you can get a Cook Out Tray which is a main item (burger/sandwich/wrap), two sides, and a ginormous drink for $4.99.
The other is that they char grill their burgers and chicken. IMO grilled burgers >>> fried burgers every day of the week. I actually get the grilled chicken, which has great flavor from the grill. It's relatively healthy before I ruin it with sides like corndogs and fries.
