World's longest Chicago-style hot dog
Record-setting dog:
The trio unveiled a 50-foot Chicago-style hot dog on Wednesday during a community celebration at the South Loop Mariano's. The effort surpassed the group's previous 44-foot hot dog, which was created in 2018 at the Bucktown Mariano's.
The event included a ceremonial hot dog cutting and Illinois Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias served as "master of ceremonies."
The oversized hot dog was served on a custom-made bun crafted by Turano Baking Company and topped with the classic Chicago-style ingredients.
The first 100 customers received a free Chicago-style hot dog while supplies last.
