The jewel in the crown has got to be Short Leash (pitctured up right). You’ll crave the comestibles of this “mobile hotdog eatery” featuring Schreiner’s Sausages served on flatbread. Choose from regular, spicy beer hot, beef, bratwurst, or chicken & veggie with over 20 different toppings. Their fried pickles on the side are a “must.” Check ‘em out on ShortLeashHotdogs.com and, of course, Facebook. These folks are destined for stardom. No kidding. They’re hoping to be tapped for the Food Network’s “Great Food Truck Race.” You’ll not only love the sausages, but you’ll adore owners Brad & Kat Moore, too.
