I have no clue why you wouldn't eat a bratwurst with ketchup and mustard instead of shitty hotdog meat. Apparently, hotdogs are loved in America and Murricans become very upset when you criticize them.
Carter Cooper
none of this happened kek
Ayden Myers
Holy shit I hope your family doesn't kill you.
Noah Lopez
Just because I have a thread on /bant/ about it doesn't mean it isn't true. I realized this would be a better board to post it on. Why do you think that would happen?
Christian Torres
probably bait but, Chicago-style hot dogs are shit, most of the ingredients involve a pickle brine at some point, the meat is full of sodium itself, and then it's sprinkled with seasoning salt. too much sodium, horribly unbalanced flavors.
the unsung Chicago hero is the Maxwell Street Polish, a polish sausage on a roll with grilled onions and mustard, optionally peppers.
and if you are a real person, I'm interested to hear which pizzeria your family is planning on taking you to. Lou Malnati's, with the optional butter-crust, is the best. Giordano's is watered down bullshit. Gino's East isn't up to snuff.

I never said the hotdog I ate had ketchup on it. I said why wouldn't Americans prefer a bratwurst with ketchup and mustard I was referring to regular hotdogs.
Gavin Campbell
>Lou Malnati's, with the optional butter-crust, is the best. Giordano's is watered down bullshit. Gino's East isn't up to snuff.
Good taste. I consider myself a bit of a chicago pizza enthusiast, tried all the big names and a lot of the noteworthy smaller ones, pequod's, my pi, etc, and i honestly think no one tops Lou's.
Leo Harris
I've never had pequod's yet, though the way their crust looks fascinates me, I really wanna try.
Ever had Aurelio's? My hometown south of the city is the original location (really beautiful place) so that's what I grew up eating, thin-crust, and I still think it's among the best pizza you can get. But I don't know that their franchise locations are of the same quality.
Noah Martinez
American here. Hotdogs are shit and meant for shitty people; don't feel too bad.
Ryan Torres
Pequod's is worth trying at least once just for the crust, for sure. The rim is like a cracker of super savory caramelized cheese. Nothing else quite like it, other than Burt's obv. Not much else about, the sauce, toppings, etc, are very memorable though. Well, other than the fact that it's bready as fuck. Like an inch thick layer of spongy bread with a relatively tame amount of sauce and cheese on top. Not really to my taste, but don't get me wrong it's a great pie. The original location in Morton Grove is cozy as hell too.
Not tried Aurelio's deep dish, although im pretty sure i've had their thin delivered before. Will keep it in mind.

Nope. Name one American food that doesn't come from the south that is better?

He's pretty much right if he threw in Tex-Mex food which still counts as american because central america is still america. Everything else can be had better in other countries.

Your family is right about how poor your taste is.
At any rate, don't get all butthurt and blame the entire city of Chicago because your family took you to a bunch of meme-food places. There's lots of good food in Chicago that isn't hotdogs and deep dish pizza.
Isaiah Torres
Why do hotdogs always taste so raw in the middle
Austin Butler
>germans make currywurst >they don't just use straight ketchup because that's the fucking point
Ethan Nelson
I had a similar poor experience at a hotdog joint in Chicago. The owner scoffed at me and gave a backhanded insult when I asked for ketchup and said he didn't have any and pretty much banned me from the other condiments so I had to eat mine plain.
Kayden King
Chicago fucks have the biggest inferiority complex in all the US. They try to be east coast but fail miserably because they're just a bunch of midwest yokels who built a city off of slaughterhouses. The most impolite, rude locals I've ever met were on 3 visits to Chicago. In 10 visits to NYC I never had one negative encounter with a local. Chicago people are assholes through and through. Those people are seriously fucked up with a negativity that destroys any possibility of enjoying yourself.
Brandon Martinez
Hotdogs are just a skinny Knockwurst, which is widely consumed in Germany. If you like Polish sausage, and HAVEN'T managed to find it in Chicongo, your relatives are retarded, as Polish and German immigrants built that entire city.
Tell them to take you to Graham Elliots place if they're looking to blow dosh to impress you.

Christopher Carter
Most soul food is British, like macaroni and cheese, fried chicken, "biscuits" which is a mispelling of scone, etc.
Benjamin Diaz
You can get those in individually-packaged plastic packs, too.
Although the best way is to go to a pub carvery. You get a set amount of meat, but then all the vegetables and gravy you want. If you can ignore the screaming children and the slow-shuffling old people and the fact that the carpet is coated with old gravy stains from people overestimating their plate's capacity. But, y'know, you're there with friends/family, they wouldn't dare fuck up the food for risk of losing their customer base, and you all end up feeling good, if a little overstuffed, from all the heavy carb-laden comfort food. You don't get better comfort food than a roast dinner. Chin up, luv, have another roast potato.
Triggering the french is fun as fuck.

Really depends on the hotdog but brats arenusually better. If you gotta go hotdogs, beef is usually the go-to for most since regular hotdogs are chicken/pork mix.

In the UK, you never trust ANYTHING labelled as a 'hot dog'. If it's not 'sausage; or 'drankfurter', there doesn't have to be meat in it.

Colton Kelly
>other than Burt's obv. For those who are unaware, Burt Levin founded Pequod's before he sold it off to some dingbat who hung lingerie in the kitchen and thought it was edgy to spraypaint "no beating" all over the men's bathroom walls.
Burt later started a new place a few blocks away, called "Burt's Place". Unfortunately, he died recently, and someone else has now taken that over. Don't know how it is yet.

You have a bait-y tone but I agree with you. The standard hotdog really has no place in anything. There's no dish, nor any way to prepare it where a proper sausage like chorizo, bratwurst, kielbasa etc isn't superior to the "hotdog". I ate a mexican styled hotdog with guacamole, salsa etc and while the condiments where good, the whole thing still didn't reach very high because she used the palest, most basic hotdog you can find.
Jose Edwards
Bratwurst with ketchup is still better than "hotdog" with ketchup. Every sausage with ketchup is better than "hotdog" with ketchup. It's the fucking worst.
Logan King
None of the foods you just said are "southern food". You wanna talk about southern food. You gotta talk about what the slaves got to keep after the masters got the best picks. Lots of pork fat, gizzards, greens, black eyed peas, rib meat, pigs, ears, feet and tails.

A hot dog is kind of the pinnacle of unpretentious American food and the way it's dressed up is almost religious to some American regions like Chicago. I think by having an unrealistic expectation of it and openly complaining about it wile comparing it to it's Euro cousins kind of puts you firmly in the pretentious snob pigeonhole that a good amount of Americans believe. Then again, you said you post on /bant/ so you're pretty much a fucking dipshit memeposter and this thread is probably bait anyways. If you truly go on international boards you're probably well aware of the pride that cities have over their local food scenes and iconic dishes, and you're shitstirring. (insulting Chicago hot dogs and pizza to Chicagoans)
Seriously. Visit family who takes you out trying to get a fun local American experience and you complain. When they get annoyed, you say "gosh I guess Americans are just sensitive and butthurt over my supreme foreign taste :^)" Go fuck yourself if you're being earnest. And if you're not, then this was truly ebin and you got me.

You are an autistic social retard who visits other countries and the first thing he does is start shitting on it, the people, their mentality and traditions and then pulls the bitchass crybaby victim card when he isn't met with warmth and enthusiam. >is a German Hans-Wurst cuckold who lets his mother, sister and daughter get fucked by muslim shitskins and niggers and will be bred out in 70 years in his own country I'm not surprised in the slightest.
Germans are the true Untermenschen. You fat autistic shit breathers always want your Weiner Schnitzel and Prezel and Bier wherever you go on holidays, be it in Thailand, Morocco, Egypt, Vietnam - it doesn't fucking matter.
