I'll be participating in the fourth leg of the Blog Eat Blog series which has been created and arranged by Abiye of Big Apple Hot Dogs (@bigapplehotdogs) to get bloggers and food-lovers together for fun and fodder by challenging them to create the ultimate topping for his ultimately tasty hotdogs. I met Abiye last year and he's great, his hot dogs are great and it's great that his Old St stall is just around the corner!
The Blog EAT Blog series have been held each Sun lunch since 26 Feb at the Vibe Bar. Unfortunately I couldn't attend the first three heats but I've been following the latest Blog EAT Blog news via Big Apple Hot Dogs twitter, the participants twitters and blogs and I've decided to to a little summary here in preparation for this weeks upcoming heat of which I will be stepping into the ring.

Check out ALL of the following blog posts as they feature brilliant pics, recipes and stories of those participating who were...
Ian who can be found twittering as @grobelaar and making people hungry on Pie for Brains and tempting people at Blog EAT Blog with a West Indian inspired Callaloo & crab, with pickled red onions and fiery hot pepper sauce. He has done a brilliant post on his website here.
Adam twitters as @adamvdb and blogs about food and all sorts as Bussche Tucker he also has done a super fine post on the days events and his entry the Ostenderfurter on his blog here.
Burger Anarchy can be found on twitter as @burgeranarchy and came up with the brilliantly sounding and titled Bacon Cheese Animal Dog. You can find the recipe for their Bacon Pickle Animal Cheese Sauce on their London Burger and Food Blog.
Tuck & Vine created a Smoked Beetroot Mayo doubled with a Kiwi Pinot reduction by Louis Fernando for their entry and have blogged about it here and can be found on twitter at @tuckandvine.
There's also a great piece and photos here that summarises Heat Two by Street Feast.
Heat Three - March 11:
The participants this week were...
Representing 7 Thumbs Up was @steampie who created a bourbon-bacon marmalade with crispy fried leeks topping. I'm curious from his Twitter info and nod to the Red Sox if he is from Massachusetts...? Do check out his post on the day and here's a great photo of all four contestants entries from @steampie:
The chilli cheese goodness on the bottom left belongs to The Londoner whose blog I love...you had me at Slutty Brownies! She tweets as @_RosieT and she has posted about the day on her blog.
Next up was Chris Green and his Damson Relish, pictured top right, and a man after my own heart...you can see his recipe and all about the day on his website here and find him on Twitter @chrisgreen.
Then there was Paul's Poutine topping of cheese curds, gravy and crushed crackers and can be seen above lower right. Paul can be found on Twitter as @PaulLomax, or on his Mouth Watering blog.
