I would think someone has posted this before, but I couldn't find it searching...
RoastMyWeenie.com has lots of pictures of their products, but grill/hacker Bill Bumgarner has the story more clearly in a blog post:

But I hate the black crispies that are induced upon grilled dogs where they touch the grill. Yuck.
Obviously, the dog needs to be lifted off the grilling surface while over the fire. Now, one could use a stick, but that is a pain. And for a gas grill, it prevents the lid from being closed, thus taking longer to cook.
Now, clearly, that dog in the photo is lifted off the grill. Almost levitating.
Neat trick, huh? Click on through to the solution created by the fine folks at RoastMyWeenie.com. The solution is a bit, um, phallic in nature — might want to think twice before clicking through if you are in a particularly prudish context….
Bill went from satisfied customer to product designer with the new limited edition
Cthulhu: Eater of Souls, Roaster of Dogs.
