One company, who does museums and the US Open, Restaurant Associates had a theme franchise "Zum Zum" that made use of American franks, with three grill types, a regular, a "bauernwurst" (farmer) and a bratwurst on seeded rolls and hot potato salad from a steam table. It was supposed to be Bavarian fast-food and served with "Hell" and "Dunkel" beer (light and dark) in all the places it was except the one I worked, in a mall staffed mostly by a "kiddie corps" (Washington Square in NYC, the Met-Life (Pan Am) Building had helicopters land on it, and other locations) along with a sandwich board, soup and other stranger "German" foods Sulze ("head cheese") Tilsit cheese, Westphalia ham, etc. The steel plates never broke. Today the small "Zum Zum" is a clock shop, started by a Rolex technician, and a very annoying advertising campaign from the Mazda car company of Hiroshima, Japan, mein freudin(?). I was a cook and a night manager of one.
