We tried the Yankee fan’s ‘hot dog beer straw’ hack: Genius or gross

The Post put that infamous “hot dog straw” to the taste test: Is it a home run or doggone disgusting?

On Monday, a Yankee fan elicited mass online vomiting after a now-viral video exposed him sucking beer through a hollowed-out hot dog functioning as a straw.

Like many thousands of confused viewers, we weren’t sure what this wannabe junk food MacGyver’s goal was: Maybe the unidentified man simply lacked a straw — or perhaps he couldn’t be bothered to invest time in eating a frank and swilling a brewski separately?

The mysteries abound.

However, as hot dog-loving New Yorkers, The Post decided to put our arteries on the line and replicate this ballpark Frank-en Brew experiment at home.

Who knows, it could be the next big TikTok food trend, right?

So, we procured two of NYC’s signature “dirty water” dogs from a nearby vendor and bopped into a bodega for a six-pack of Pacifico beer. Grand total investment: 10 bucks and some spare change. Then we got our hands on one of those increasingly rare “classic” drinking straws and a sippy cup of sorts — and got to work improvising a meat straw.

As per the original video, we inserted said straw into the tubesteak with catheter-like precision to core a hole through which the suds could flow. Note: We advise buying two franks as one will inevitably get mutilated during sausage surgery — which was the case with our experiment. Then we filled a cup.

Ready, set, suck!

Well, this epicurean aberration tasted exactly like it sounds: Like good beer refracted through a speedball of sodium and miscellaneous pig parts.

To sum up, brats and beer are great on their own — but be sure not to combine these ingredients in this fashion, or you’ll end with a high-octane Hydra of horror. Think of it like culinarily splicing orange juice and gasoline to create napalm a la “Fight Club.”

Nonetheless, in the realm of freaky frankenfusion, the brewdog doesn’t hold a candle to TikTok’s viral sugar-slathered Hawaiian pizza, or this mustard-dipped watermelon, which was so revolting it made Lizzo nearly lose her lunch.

Anyways, to tweak an iconic line from “Jackass” legend Johnny Knoxville, “This is Ben Cost and this is the hot dog beer straw.”
