Hot diggity dog

Stuggy’s Old Fashioned Hot Dogs and Sausages opened today (April 5). The carryout shop is sure to fill a food gap in Fells Point.

I just happened to be walking by and decided to peek inside when I was told it was the first day of business. Stuggy’s (809 S. Broadway) must be hitting the right notes. The tip jar was almost full.

I already had lunch so I’ll have to go back and try the dogs myself soon. Maybe tomorrow. The menu is tempting, with items like the Bmore Dog (all-beef, quarter-pound jumbo kosher hot dog, grilled baloney, and deli mustard), the Wild Thing (bison sausage, blue cheese, and diced raw onions), and The Cuban (jumbo dog, pickle spear, pulled pork, baked Virginia ham, Swiss, and mojo sauce).

Prices range from $3.99 to $7.99 for individual dogs and sausages, or there are combo meals that include a drink and fries. Stuggy’s also has fried Oreo cookies ($2.29).

I have to stop writing. I’m making myself hungry. I may have to go back this afternoon!
