We have the beef sandwich fixings shipped to us a few times a year, just for a special treat.
I tried a Portillo's hot dog once- it just did not 'do it' for me.

Agree Portillo's doesn't do it for me either! Italian Beef , I wish I could the Hot Giardiniera but alas not anymore have to go with mild
These days I make my own Italian Beef (not as good as back home) but does in a pinch. Publix sells in their Deli on occasion Italian Roast Beef. I buy it sliced nice and thin and make my own Italian au jus for it and add sautéed peppers. As a matter of fact it's on sale this week so going to get a few pounds. I make it and then freeze it for later. Makes one heck of sandwich.
Your hot dog recipes are spot on! The 1st one though is the way I remember them from the guys pushing the hot dog carts around, they also offered tomatoes. Back then 25 cents for a great hotdog!
Publix I bet would get your Giardiniera and sport peppers if you asked!
