Stray Dogs is hosting a premiere party for its small screen debut on The Food Network’s show Ginormous Food at 5 p.m. on Friday, June 9.
In the episode, food-fanatic host Josh Denny two-steps into Tucson in search of some of the Southwest’s most monumental meals. During his visit to Stray Dogs, he sinks his teeth into their sixteen-inch-wide, chocolate-filled glazed donut called the B.F.D.
Stray Dogs’ casual atmosphere allows you to kick back with friends or your dog, watch a game on any of their 7 screens, and enjoy satisfying treats and brews.
Homemade comfort food and drink specials will be offered all night, including burgers, hot dogs, pizza, and of course, samples of their famous giant donut highlighted on the upcoming episode of Ginormous Food.
And yes, Stray Dogs actually loves dogs. Grab your leash and bring down your pooch to their dog-friendly patio that’s equipped with a play area.
The episode features other local restaurants as well.
Boca Tacos y Tequila serves up the Titanic Taco Dog, a five-pound taco piled high with pinto beans, cactus salsa and bacon-wrapped hot dogs. Lindy’s on 4th delivers a six-pound burger named The Burn Out, topped with jalapenos and pepper Jack cheese.
Stray Dogs is located at 78 W. River Rd. and the premiere party begins at 5 p.m. on Friday, June 9.

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
