JJ’s Redhots
I’m pretty sure you can waffle any firm yet moldable, semi-solid, non-frozen edible substance or viscous liquid batter. I say this with a moderate level of confidence as the proud first-time owner of my very own waffle maker, which I received two weeks ago as a birthday gift (from my boyfriend… who specified he wants verbal credit for this piece).
After successfully making birthday waffles on my first try, I now carry with me the burning desire to waffle any and everything.
So in an attempt to put to good use a kitchen appliance that sits woefully neglected most days of the year, I’ve decided to dust it off at least once a week to find out if popular food items from around Charlotte can in fact be waffled.

Verdict: Oh yes, it waffles. I bought these two dogs thinking I would brutalize them in my waffle maker, fail miserably and throw them away. Instead, I ate both of them in about six minutes. I like how the waffle iron makes the bun toasty and heats up all the toppings.
