I was on vacation recently when I heard an unfamiliar voice call out, “Steve?”

I turned to see a bright red hot dog cart and a pretty face smiling back at me.

“Yes, I’m Steve”, I said.

“Steve from HotDogProfits.com?”

“Yep, that’s me.” I just started laughing because until this moment, no one has ever recognized me on the street. It was kinda weird feeling and kinda neat at the same time.

I introduced myself and asked Marge if I could have a tour of the cart that her husband and son built. It’s really nice as you are about to see.

She even has a signature hot dog. She created what she calls a Twisted Dog. It is cut, seasoned and when grilled it turns into a caramelized, twisting tube steak that hangs off both ends of the bun, Rivera says. Marge also serves steamed dogs, Chicago dogs, New York dogs and Walking Tacos. Chips are the side offering and Coca-Cola products and water can help quench a thirst.

Since she started the Twisted Dawg, Marge has hired five women from her neighborhood who also needed more money to make ends meet. They are all trained to provide friendliness, smiles and good food.

My wife video taped our cart tour and I thought you might like to see it. Pardon the wind noise at the beginning of the movie, we were on a bluff overlooking Lake Michigan and it was blowing pretty good…

Thanks Marge, it was a pleasure meeting you, your Twisted Dawg was DELICIOUS and I absolutely love what you’ve accomplished with your hot dog biz! I’m so proud of you.

Let’s congratulate Marge in the comments. She deserves it!

-Steve
