Um's Story

When Mike moved from the Chicago area, he found himself craving the authentic taste of a true Chicago-style hot dog. Unable to find the perfect all-beef dog, especially the iconic Chicago Dog, he decided to create one himself. What started as a personal quest for flavor soon evolved into Uncle Mike's Red Hots—a tribute to the Windy City’s classic hot dog culture. Now, Uncle Mike’s brings that same love for quality and tradition to everyone, serving up authentic Chicago Dogs with a personal touch.
