Superdawg serves a beef hot dog

Each Superdawg comes with fries! Keep that in mind if you go for seconds. Also notice the pickled green tomato wedges.

The Superdawg hot dog cannot be considered traditional for one reason and that is the tomatoes. A traditional Chicago hot dog has sliced, raw tomato. This hot dog has pickled tomatoes. While I do love anything pickled, Marco and I both had to take one star from Supedawg’s tradition score.

The beef hot dog itself is pretty large compared to some other hot dogs. While this is a plus in the quality category, it did make the balance of the hot dog as a whole a little uneven. The taste of the meat overpowered its toppings, leaving Marco and I to each give two stars toward the taste score.

Superdawg’s score is 2.3 stars out of 3. Overall, I would still certainly recommend Superdawg as it’s a Chicago institution for great reasons.
