Johnniebeefs Chicago Style Hot Dogs

Maybe I'm missing something here, but it's a hot dog. For what he charges I can buy a pack of premium dogs at the store and smoke/grill them at home, put on the toppings I love, and feed my entire family several times on what he charges for one dog. And on the side he has crinkle-cut fries, the kind mom used to buy and bake in the oven when I was a kid. Is it good, yes. But I can get as good a dog at JDawgs for less than half what I get at Johnnie's.

First time visit I have to give them points for the fact that we showed up about 20 minutes before they opened and I didn't even notice that.

First time hereThe staff was friendly and apologetic for not being prepared to be open.

Ordered the Buttermilk Chicken sandwichOne of the better fried chicken sandwiches I've ever had.
