  Follow in Adam?s footsteps and attempt to beat The Roast Grill?s Hot Dogger Challenge record. As seen on Travel Channel?s Man v. Food Nation.
• Don H.
  Don't order w/ ketchup!
• Sean H.

  Owner George Poniros still follows his grandma's advice: "Never put ketchup in there. We spend too much time making delicious chili for people to ruin it."

  Order a large coke. You get 20 oz for just 50 cents more than the cute 8 oz bottles. Although drinking from the glass is kinda cool. . . .

  A Raleigh establishment. A must-go.
• Charles M.
  If you like your dogs crispy on the outside, order them well done. George keeps some on the grill extra time just for that purpose.
