    If you're talking about Miami Subs, I definitely remember that place (I'm in Florida). And you're correct that they served Nathan's. Miami Subs has steadily been on the decline since I can remember, so I'm not sure if they exist anymore.

    Only place I really eat hotdogs in Houston is James Coney Island and sometimes Hotdog Station in Sugar Land

    I'm puzzled why people are making a big deal about processed meat catered to the fast food industry...then again I've had some hotdogs from this place called Gene and Jude's at Chicago and I liked it way better then what I've had in Htown.

    Out of curiousity, I tried that DemmDawgs, it was a hotdog stand outside a thrift store, I liked it but I wouldn't go out of my way to go there again, plus they wanted take a pic of you for their myspace, kinda creepy.

    Since we're all over the place now, if you're ever in Vancouver the JapaDog hot dog stand is pretty good (a few blocks from Robson). Wasabi mayo is god-like.

    Where I come from (which is Mars, apparently), there would be this little corner store that sold hotdogs 2/$1. Bring $2 and get 4 hotdogs. You can get them all the way with chili, onions, pickles, coleslaw, ketchup and mustard or any other way you want. Guy who ran the place told me he sold over 500 a day. Which is incredible for a small town of only 200 people.

    the whole concept of putting coleslaw on everything under the sun is foreign to texans. my wife is from arkansas. when i went to vist her and ordered a chopped beef sandwich at a bbq restaurant, I was shocked to discover cole slaw on it. It wasn't on the menu...it just came that way. As if it was assumed that everyone would want it that way. Eww.

    Anyone ever try the Grilled Footlong Hotdog at Lenny's Sub Shop? I've seen it on the menu, but I have never tried it.

    Well that sounds awesome, except for the coleslaw, pickles, and ketchup on a chili dog part.

    Frankly (pun intended) I'm amazed at how bad we are overall with hot dogs in Houston. I think of Nathan's in NY, Pink's in LA (forget the celebs, look at those hot dogs), etc. I can't believe we don't have a really good hot dog stand like those places. The only reason I like JCI is for the nostalgia. I don't even go unless it's something like a special promotion like their current 85c originals on selected thursdays to celebrate their 85th anv.

    I've kind of adopted the coleslaw on bbq sandwich thing myself. I don't usually eat bbq by myself or an individual order like a chopped beef sandwich, I usually get a couple of pounds of sliced brisket to bring home for friends and family. I'll take some buttered texas toast, moisten the bread a bit with bbq sauce, put on a layer of coleslaw, then some slices of brisket, bbq sauce on the brisket, then i cover it liberally with those peppered sweet onions. Damn, I'm hungry now.

    You can get a huge hot dog or polish sausage + a drink at CostCo for $1.50.
