In driving down Randall Road in North Aurora I noticed a food truck called Jimmies Hot Dogs hiding behind a Speedway Gas station. I decided to stop by and try out the hot dog.
I walked up to the window and a gentleman took my order. I decided to go for a hot dog with mustard, relish and onion (they apparently also offer ketchup and a special sauce) along with a can of coke. I took my order, snapped a picture of the truck so I could remember all of the relevant information and headed to my friends apartment to try this hot dog out.
The hot dog I received came on a slightly dry regular non-poppy seed bun. The application of mustard was a bit heavy, but the relish and onions were well applied. The relish used was not the standard neon green Chicago style relish, as a result this relish was a tad more sour than most. The sausage itself was a skinless hot dog, and was well heated.
This is my first food truck review, as I spot more food trucks I may do more. While the hot dog wasn't great by restaurant standards I didn't go in with high expectations. As a result I wasn't really disappointed. At only 1.99 for the hot dog, the price wasn't too bad. I can't say I'd recommend it, but if you like food trucks it would be worth stopping at. Perhaps I'll stop again and try the special sauce on a dog. read more
