"A four-pack of Miller's Colossal uncured beef franks weighs in at 14 ounces, that works out to 3.5 ounces per dog. Compared to a package of Bar-S classic franks, a 12-ounce pack means each dog is 1.5 ounces, and even the Jumbo Franks from Bar-S only amount out to 2 ounces each. Even compared to its own offerings, Miller's Colossal franks stand out from the pack. Compared to The Stretch, which are franks that Miller's makes slightly longer so you never have to find a creative substitute for your bun, the franks are just 1.75 ounces each - making the Colossal twice the size."
"Both Nathan's Famous colossal beef franks and the Hebrew International beef franks are larger than Miller's at 4 ounces each, and that's pretty impressive. But it's more than size that makes Miller's a standout. Miller's franks are also some of the simplest wieners you can buy - made with natural ingredients, no preservatives, no nitrites, and none of the fillers that many other brands use. For example, Bar-S hot dogs include mechanically separated chicken and pork, modified corn starch, corn syrup, and sodium nitrite while Miller's uses just beef, sea salt, mustard, celery juice powder, and natural flavors. Even Nathan's, which boasts about not using fillers or artificial colors, still uses ingredients like sorbitol as a sweetener and hydrolyzed corn protein"
Miller's Craft Meats produces the Colossal hot dog at 3.5 ounces per dog in a four-pack totaling 14 ounces. Competing brands often offer much smaller franks—Bar-S classic at 1.5 ounces and Bar-S Jumbo at 2 ounces—while Miller's own Stretch measures 1.75 ounces. Nathan's Famous and Hebrew International franks measure 4 ounces each. Miller's Colossal stands out not only for size but also for ingredient simplicity: no preservatives, no nitrites, and no fillers. Other brands list mechanically separated meats, modified starches, corn syrup, sodium nitrite, sorbitol, and hydrolyzed corn protein among ingredients.
