Franks, in Franks and Beans refers to FRANKfurters. Weenies refers to WIENERS.
See Wikipedia page for a picture of the dish.
And here's an excerpt from Dreamboat of the Western World by Tracy Sinclair (1992):
"I also got a bottle of wine for dinner."
"I hope it's an unpretentious little vintage that goes with frankfurters and beans. That's what we're having." Melissa got out two highball glasses and filled an ice bucket from the freezer.
"Great. I haven't had franks and beans in a long time,"
