Superdawg Drive-In: superdawg.com/
First on our hot dog journey, we visit the historic Superdawg Drive-In, a true Chicago landmark since 1948. Located at the corner of Milwaukee, Devon, and Nagle, this family-owned and operated drive-in has been serving their unique Superdawg™ for over seven decades. With its retro vibe and carhop service, Superdawg offers an experience like no other.
What We Ordered: The classic Superdawg™ - a pure beef hot dog, nestled in a poppy seed bun, and topped with all the classic Chicago-style fixings including mustard, relish, onions, pickles, and peppers.
Devil Dawgs: www.devildawgs...
Next, we head to Devil Dawgs, a modern hotspot that started in Lincoln Park near DePaul University in 2010. Known for its quick service and premium ingredients, Devil Dawgs has rapidly expanded across Chicago, bringing their unique take on hot dogs and burgers to several neighborhoods.
What We Ordered: The Chicago Dog - featuring a premium beef hot dog topped with yellow mustard, bright green relish, chopped onions, tomato slices, a pickle spear, sport peppers, and a dash of celery salt, all encased in a poppy seed bun.
By the end of our delicious journey, we’ll reveal our favorite Chicago hot dog and explain why it stood out to us. Was it the nostalgic Superdawg Drive-In or the lively Devil Dawgs? Watch to find out! Don’t miss our first-hand experience and honest opinions as we explore these iconic Chicago hot dogs. Whether you’re a foodie, a hot dog enthusiast, or just curious about what makes these Chicago-style dogs so special, this video is for you! #food #foodie #tastetest #BritsTry #ChicagoHotDogs #Superdawg #DevilDawgs #ChicagoFood #FoodReview #ChicagoEats #HotDogTasteTest #ChicagoStyleHotDogs #BritishCouple #FoodVlog #ChicagoFoodie #HotDogComparison #ChicagoIcons #BestHotDogs #FoodieAdventure #BritsInChicago

If you really wanna be specific, the order of construction on a Chicago dog is: Dog in bun Mustard Relish & onion on opposite sides of the dog Tomato and pickle also on opposite sides of the dog Celery salt Sport peppers. Always celery salt before peppers. You want the dry celery salt on top of the moist condiments, not the drier peppers.

Not an old gas station. This is a classic 1950s drive-in restaurant similar to A&Ws that are still present some places in the US. Drive up, push the order button, and wait for the server to deliver your meal. Generally these were served on a tray made to hand on the car window. Servers used to commonly be on roller skates.

@jameshelm2847 3 месяца назад

I am glad to see you are enjoying the food in Chicago. I can't comment on either of the places you tried. When I was growing up in the '70s and '80s, we HAD to stop at a street vendor and get a street dog on almost every trip into the city. I admit they were using brats or beef sausages and not what most people would consider a hot dog, but getting it straight from the cart and then adding the topping you wanted. One of my most adds was sauerkraut. The Chicago street dog is more famous than the Chicago hotdog and has been used in movies. James Earl Jones had a scene in a movie where he was released from prison, and the first thing he did was get a street dog. "While You Were Sleeping," starring Sandra Bullock. Her character gets a dog from a street vendor several times in the movie. I haven't had a street dog in Chicago for a couple of decades, so I can't say they are still as good as they used to be, but I do know when we had relatives or friends come and visit, they all wanted to try a street dog, not any hotdog restaurant. I apologize for the length of my comment.

The only dog better than a Chicago dog, is a Sonoran dog in Tucson. Grew up just 3 miles from Chicago’s famous Super Dawg and now live in Tucson. Ketchup on a dog is “illegal” in Chicago. Your Whoopskidawg is not a hot dog. It’s a Polish sausage. Chicago has the largest Polish population outside of Warsaw.

I’m a native of West Michigan and, while I didn’t live in Chicago, I was about 2 hours away from the city and spent a lot of time there. I’ve since moved to New England-Boston, to be exact-but I have been very homesick for the Midwest lately, and especially Chicago. I miss Chicago style and Detroit style pizzas especially-the thin, Neapolitan style of the East Coast is fine but deep dish is the best to me. I’m sure if you’re in Chicago there’s a pizza episode coming up, and I’m looking forward to it! Definitely bring your appetites when you try deep dish; I can only eat a piece at a time, maybe two if I’m extremely hungry! Edit: If you ask people for recommendations you’re going to get some strong opinions in the comments for sure-some Chicagoans feel very strongly about their pizza faves. The last time I was there was for a concert and I ordered from a place near my Airbnb called The Art of Pizza which I really enjoyed. I also like Lou Malnati’s and Gino’s East-those are just two of the more well-known spots. I don’t think I ever had pizza in Chicago that I didn’t like though for me it’s about the crust and there are some that I think are better than others 😊 Have fun!

@kellypedersen9896 3 месяца назад

Chicago takes its hot dogs very seriously. For a food that is usually just dismissed as kid or comfort food, Chicago strives to make the hot dog an actual adult meal. Before they passed, you could see Maurie and Florie Berman hanging out at the Superdawg locations (using doing the accounts- Maurie was an accountant by trade). They actually autographed a shirt for me. :) And the Whoopskidawg is their take on the Polish sausage/ kielbasa sandwiches a lot of places offer at hot dog joints (Like Jim's Original)- but whereas most Polish sausages get served w/ mustard and a generous helping of grilled onions, Superdawg serves theirs w/ barbecue sauce- not necessarily "authentic", but really, really good. Other good spots to check out are Wolfy's (their char-dogs are amazing), and Gene & Jude's out in River Grove (oh, and that's close to Hala Kahiki, so you can get a gigantic tiki drink adterwards). :)

The absolute best hot dog I've ever had in Chicago was outside the Shedd Aquarium from a vendor with a cart. It was very basic. Only had it with mustard and nothing else on it. It was steamed to perfection on a soft bun with just a light smear of mustard. Delicious!

That sounds amazing! Sometimes simplicity is key when it comes to great food. Thanks for sharing

When you make your way to Connecticut for the apizza tour you will be able to try Louis Lunch (across the street from BAR pizza) home of the first hamburger served in the US. CT is also famous for the lobster roll with the first being served in a restaurant called Perry’s in Milford about 10K from downtown New Haven. Perry’s no longer exists but they are served all along the coast including the 7 Seas in Milford which also has amazing fish and chips. Also in New Haven is a meat packer Hummel Bros. whose hot dogs are sold everywhere in the county, if you don’t serve Hummels, you don’t stay in business long.

"Hiya" as they say at Superdawg. I had the good fortune to meet and chat several times with Maurie and Flaurie (Florence) Berman in the early 2000's. It was when they were planning the second location in Wheeling, IL. Wonderful people! It's great to see their children and grandchildren keeping the Superdawg faith! The hotdog statues represent Maurie and Flaurie. Flaurie was the first carhop.

Good hot dogs are underrated. Those looked incredible though. I’m a big fan of street hot dogs, usually found in bigger cities.

You really missed out on not eating the pickled green tomatoes. Fix them yearly and they are delicious. 🍀 Blessings, Teresa 🦉

I worked in Chicago for many years and got into numerous arguments with the locals over putting ketchup on my hot dogs. Some of them seem to consider it a more serious offense than a drive-by shooting.

Welcome to Chicago!! The Superdawg is the quintessential Chicago style Hot Dog with a poppy seed bun except for the pickled green tomato. Typically, they have sliced red tomatoes like at Devil Dogs. The Whoopskidawg is a Polish Sausage made with grilled onions and mustard on an onion roll bun. Both are native to Chicago and much loved by the locals. Im glad you both enjoyed your Chicago dining experiences. I suggest you try Chicago style deep dish pizza at Lou Malnati's Pizzeria in Lincolnwood, Elk Grove Village or Schaumburg and New York syle Deli sandwiches like Corned Beef or Pastrami sandwiches at Manny's Deli and Coffee Shop lunch in Chicago or at the Schmaltz Deli in Lisle while you're here too. Enjoy. 😅

Thank you for your recommendations, We did try Deep dish pizza while in Chicago, We will upload the video soon! Thanks for the insider tips.

@jimhoffman6979 3 месяца назад

Oh, good! I'll look forward to your video. You're most welcome! I didn't realize you've already been to Katz's in New York. Our deli's may not compare well. Nothing beats New York Deli in NYC. ❤😂 I'm glad you're enjoying Chicago. If like donuts you might enjoy visiting County Donuts in Schaumburg. It's a privately owned donut shop. But it's much better than Dunkin Donuts. Stan's Donuts and Krispy Kreme are also satisfying. But they're bigger brand names. Enjoy! 😁

Love a good Chicago dog. Born and raised in Chicagoland. Poppyseed bun, celery salt, sport peppers, dill pickle, neon green relish, tomatoes, onions, mustard and of course the hotdog. Perfection. Now go try the Italian beef!

@thebritstry 3 месяца назад

Thanks for sharing your love for Chicago dogs! They are truly a classic. We did try Italian beef, here is the video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DgQD0Ng1Wqs.html

A classic Chicago hot dog is on poppy seed bun. You missed what is voted not only top hot dog in Chicagoland, but all of US, at Gene & Jude’s in River Grove. For tourists visiting, the farther from downtown typically the better for local foods.

We really wanted to try Gene & Jude’s but we just couldn't get there in the short amount of time we had, Next time we will definitely try and get there! Thanks for watching

Im a Hoosier (neighboring state). Ive tried several Chicago hot dog places (not Devil dogs). My favorite 8s Super Dawg's. Cant be beat IMO.

@GranpaMike 3 месяца назад

All four looked pretty tasty, but my favorite is a beef brat grilled over a hickory fire, on an onion bun and with a generous squiggle of mustard. Sometimes it's the simple things that shine. :)

Hot dogs are just so diverse, depending where you are. In Chicago, they'll run you out if you ask for ketchup. In New York, they typically do brown mustard and sauerkraut or onions. In the South some people eat it with mayo on the bun and ketchup on top. And then there's chili dogs, which are typically topped with cheese and sometimes just plain yellow mustard. I'm a whole hearted believer that people should just be able to eat and enjoy a good hot dog, whatever kinda way you want, but there are a frightening amount of people that will go up in arms defending their beliefs of what should be on a hot dog 😂 Also, if yall ever get a chance to try a hot link hot dog, it's definitely worth a shout.

@thebritstry 3 месяца назад

Glad you guys got to super dawgs, every neighborhood in the city has there dog stand and it’s great to try different ones every week. If you get a chance check out Gene and Jude’s by ohare airport such a great place and the add fries on top of the dog, it’s call a depression dog . Can’t wait to see the next video guys keep up the amazing work!

I'm from Chicago and I like ketchup on my hotdogs, I heard 50% of chicagoans like ketchup on their hotdogs, but they won't say it out loud. It you ask for ketchup packages for your fries you can get it on your dog without some counter person being rude.

Thnaks for sharing! It's all about personal preference when it comes to hotdog toppings! As long as you are enjoying it!
