[null and void]

The story behind the nickname, please?

[Viking2002]

Back in the day, the cook on the line who actually made the dogs up for people would line the buns up his sweaty arm right up to his pit, drop the dogs in, and top them to order. Hence the name, 'sweat dogs'. People swore it gave them more flavor. If they tried that now, the health department would probably brick over all the doors and windows with everyone still inside, and declare it an eco-hazard.
