The Pro Dog Hot Dog Cart

The cart rests on a D.O.T. Highway approved heavy duty trailer (title included) with baked enamel finish. Bolted and welded construction allows for a super strong structure and will give you many years of use. The leaf spring suspension system allows you to tow it safely at freeway speeds. The tires are standard size 4.8″ x 8″.

Griddle: The commercial griddle is built into the cart and is stainless steel. One large burner powers the griddle and a adjustable thermostat allows you to control the temperature. A grease trap with a locking door holds the old grease out of site and removes for easy cleaning. It also has a heat vent to direct extra heat and fumes out and away from you and your customers. To the right of the griddle is Steam Table: The dual (2) commercial burners in the full size steam table are powered by LP Propane Gas. Dual control knobs are standard and allow you to cook more evenly. Burners are lined with holes for even heating and wind resistance. BensCarts uses the best equipment on the market to ensure faithful service from your cart. Under the bread box is a hidden storage area for two full size 20# propane tanks. Many states require you have two propane tanks in case you run out of gas in one, you have a back up. No exposed tanks makes for a safer cart and a professional appearance. A single gas line runs from the burners to the propane storage area and allows you to hook up one tank. A high end LP regulator is included with an easy twist on/off connection.

The steam table can accommodate various size pots with lids. You can use the steamer for hot dogs, buns, chili, cheese, sauerkraut and more. Comes standard with large steam table which includes; Three 1/3 size NSF pans and lids and a full size spillage pan.

The cart comes standard with 4 stainless steel sinks with a hot and cold pressurized water system with no clog drains, a 5 gallon clear water tank and a 7.5 gallon tank for waste water. You can select 1, 2, 3 or 4 sinks at no additional cost. If you want less than 4 sinks, please note this in the comments section during ordering. Sinks areapprox. 5”X 6” and 4” deep. Water system, including all fittings and copper and PEX lines are NSF certified. Choosing less sinks will enlarge sinks at no additional cost. Waste water tank is fixed under the cart body and out of view. It includes a valve for easy draining and comes standard with back flow prevention. Pressure is supplied by the commercial 12v pump. (battery not included) Hot water is supplied via a copper tube that is over the burners, heat from the burners provides the hot water.

BensCarts sets itself apart by going above and beyond with this fully removable tow bar with a D.O.T. approved 1 7/8″ ball coupler and two safety chains. Simply unclip the pin and remove the tow bar and stow away underneath the cart. This allows you and your customers to move safely around the cart and allows for better working conditions. Includes tag frame.

Leveling posts are included for balance and stability. They slide away easily for transport.

With your 12v. lawnmower or motorcycle battery you can power the included pump that will give you pressurized water. This on demand pump knows when you open the faucet and comes on.

You will love this super functional condiment table. It allows your customers to fix their own dogs while you serve dogs from the front. Saves you time and headaches. Plus, we have added a hidden ice tray under the condiment table so that your recessed stainless steel pans sit on a bed of ice. Condiment Pans and lids are included. Has a drain opening, but we recommend using freezer gel packs instead of ice.

This fully insulated cooler has a hinged lid for easy access. It is rated to hold ice for up to 5 days in 90 degree temperatures. Most vendors don’t use this cooler for drinks and store extra dogs and condiments here. You will always need a large cooler for drinks, my freestanding cooler holds 300 drinks.

As a D.O.T. approved trailer, our carts include stop, turn and tail lights. Wiring harness includes a standard 4 wire flat connection.

The oversized bread box rivals others in size. Holding up to 30 bags of 12ct buns and other necessities like napkins, foil and dry condiments. It is solid stainless steel and includes a shelf for a more organized system. Instead of using plexiglass doors, BensCarts upgrades all doors to stainless steel for free, which allows you to keep your supplies hidden from customers view. Plexiglass fades and yellows over time getting these fine hairline cracks and streaks that can make your cart look nasty and old. Stainless steel doors allow for a professional look years from now. Each cart is equipped with two doors for easy access from either side of the cart.

Below the bread box, depending on how many propane tanks you have is extra storage space accessible from either side of the cart.

The 9 ft. market umbrella is huge. Allowing for some shade on those hot days. It stands out like nicely for visibility. The umbrella is fabric and its structure is metal to hold up to moderate wind and use. Comes in Red or Yellow. See picture on our facebook page.

A rear rack is an available upgrade and allows for a 2nd onboard cooler for drinks. Solid steel and comes with straps for securing during travel. See options tab above for more details.

Before buying a cart, do your due diligence. Make sure you buy a cart that meets your states codes and requirements. I don’t want you to buy a cart that you can’t use. Simply download or email the cart brochure to your health department and get pre-approved before purchasing. For full details see our free training section.
