Pretzel dogs ain't too bad either, for a change of pace, once in a while...

I'm a burger guy. But sometimes a salty hot dog off the grill (it must be black in spots) is like, Americana on a bun. ... With beer too.
Too fine a grind. It’s a hot dog. Polish have coarse grind, and must be served with mayo, lettuce, tomato, and fried egg only.
Yum Yum, hot dogs, made with the five ‘T’s’: Tits, Tripe, Tongues, Tails, and Testicles.
But, boy, with a toasted bun, mustard, and relish, they sure do taste great!
Catsup? Americans call it ketchup.
Yeah, Portillos is expanding.
Especially my waistline.
My hardest decision.
Do I want a jumbo hot dog,
or a jumbo chili dog,
or an EYEtalian beef,
or a combo,
or a Maxwell Street polish sahsage.
So many decisions, means I go AT LEAST once a week.
Dick sold the restaurants maybe 2 years ago.
Just under ONE BILLION dollars.
I heard recently, he’s bought all the real estate from the company back.
He now is in charge of land acquisitions and development and leases the properties to the restaurant group.
It’ll be interesting to see how they expand.
Hot dog stands aren’t big everywhere.
It’ll be interesting if they try to move into the New York area.
MMMM
With mustard and on-yon. Sometimes with kraut.
Sometimes adding ketchup and relish.
Sometimes with mustard onions, Cole slaw and chili.
Dang...getting all Bubba Gumpy on how to enjoy a dog.
The only thing I put on my hot dogs are grilled jalapeno peppers (sauted in olive oil).
Polish are meant to be grilled
or
deep fried
You can put them on a French or Italian roll,
but a poppyseed hot dog bun (We’s calls dem Maryann’s) is best.
Mustard and grilled onions only.
(Okay, maybe some GOOD sauerkraut)
You forgot:
Mayo 29%
“Btw...Catsup on a dog is a sin.”
Only if you a liberal from Chicago.
Not boiled,
But from hot water in a steam table.
They’ll float when they’re ready.
Buns are warmed in the steam table.
There is a Chicagoland “landmark” called Gene and Judes.
Your dog comes wrapped with fries.
No ketchup.
Don’t bother asking.
I went there ONCE.
Unimpressed to say the least.
Portillos has made a small fortune from me.
That’s what happens when you use free surveys:)
Can’t do hotdogs anymore — after two nearly sent me to the hospital with dangerously high blood pressure. Nearly 2000 mgs of sodium in one sitting. Used to love them.
Nothing like a Nathan’s at Coney Island, then a ride on the Cyclone.
So then..........we agree on the French, or Italian roll I forgot to put in my Polish Sausage recommendation. Well...we agree on something LOL.
I can grab a quarter-pound hot dog before going shopping on Saturday morning, and not want anything to eat until dinner time. (Mustard, onion, relish.)
I prefer burned hot dogs cooked on a charcoal grill with mustard and onions.
Polish sausage with green peppers and onions.
Ah, remember Lum’s Hotdogs in Florida (many years ago)!
During the 70s I worked out of the Federal Building in Tulsa.
There was a hole in the wall hot dog joint called the Coney Islander or something very close to that. I believe they made the best ones I have ever had.
A bunch of Greeks, some of whom only understood a few words such as, two all the way. They grilled them on a flat grill. buns were ordinary Bunny Bread. Wieners came in a large white box marked “Swift”. I never could duplicate theirs. I think the reason was their very finely chopped onions and mild chili were different that what I could create.
