Note to self - drink more, post less
Even though they’re soggy pieces of crap.
I should say that I’m not talking about the board, but Northern Indiana in general.
fries made from uncured potatoes suck. They’re gummy and soggy.
Their hamburgers are quite good. Their fries are terrible.
copied that?
It adds nothing to the sandwich and ruins the french fries.
To each his own but that deep dish casserole they call Chicago style pizza and that overloaded hot dog they call a Chicago dog are a disgrace.
Go to Peaquod's and give tavern style a shot.
about the Chicago Dog.
It’s a masterpiece!
Not only do I dislike the Chicago dog ("and all it's works and pomps"), but I put KETCHUP (preferably Heinz) on my dogs.
Or one with sauerkraut or one with cheese. Rarely chili. Never mix any of them.
...and I'm tired of pretending it doesn't.
NOT including ketchup on a hotdog around Mobile, AL gets the same response as including it on a hotdog gets in Chicago.
Personally, to bridge the gap, if the hotdog is of good quality, all you need is mustard. However, Oscar Meyer is simply a vehicle for condiments: cheese, ketchup, mustard, onions, relish, etc.
Of course, there are a lot of things to enjoy here before moving to hot dogs.
If you are getting hotdogs in Mobile, you have problems.
There was an article about the Dew Drop Inn in Mobile and their hotdogs, a while back and they mentioned ketchup on hotdogs was the default preparation in southern Alabama.
…isn’t any way to go through life son.
That’s pure Western Pa right there.
So I’m not in disagreement. I had some last month so that’ll tide me over until almost 2026.
But man, I’ll fight you over denigrating the Great Chicago hotdog, oh yes, yes I will. Name a place, I’ll even go to all da way over ere in dahntahn Pixburgh, ‘n ‘at.
If nothing else, I am interested in trying something that even vaguely approaches an authentic version.
(And you are free to respond denying that it even does that.)
There was a hot dog shop in the Oakland section of PGH since I was a wee type that's now closed.
We could have met there and you could've ordered a Chicago dog while I could've ordered whatever I wanted on mine. And the fries were great, not soggy and a single order was numerous - the two of us would have a hard time eating all of them.
An epicurean delight.
I hold you down while he kicks you in the gut.
Then we steal your oranges.
made of knuckles.
The gall.
Is it the soggy fries, the Oscar Meyer reject quality meat, or the Wonderbread?
Wonderbread. You forgot the provolone, sliced tomato, and coleslaw. I add my own Heinz ketchup.
I imagine Greeks can make bread too. Unleavened for sure.
Can someone deliver to Cleveland? I'm only here this week.
Pretty much same thing (not my style) been aroudn cleveland for years.
I knew better than to not find lunch until now...hrm...
I might pack some in dry ice to bring home if we go.
While I do enjoy a primanti’s sandwich I can understand the dislike and the love. I’m also fortunate or unfortunate based on your take on the sandwich to have a location less than a mile from me.
About an hour and 15 minute drive from Cleveland.
fortunately, I just had a little water in my basement, not bad at all. First time this has happened. My neighbors were not so lucky, the street a couple blocks down from me was evacuated Thursday night, many basements flooded. A coworker's husband's business was destroyed by the floods.
I play in a golf league, the course is closed until further notice from the flooding.
More rain tomorrow, with ground already saturated, it will mostly be all runoff.
The Penguins powerplay is a catastrophe.
