What Bill B likes about Fat Johnnie's Famous Red Hots:
NO OTHER DOG LIKE IT!!. Here's the deal on Johnnies. No frills, ghetto surroundings (bring your Glock) Johnnie dumps his dogs out of an old RV. No fries, either. View all feedback. What mark alleman doesn't like about Fat Johnnie's Famous Red Hots:
Not a Fat Johnnie's anymore. Hot dog has grissel and not a Vienna dog, no tomatos, no peppers and served cold. Do not recommend and thay did not even know what a Chicago Style dog View all feedback.
