"Man, Slim's the nicest" is the equivalent of saying "Slim my nigga" LOL
ha!
+Link The Love without the racist slur!
Slim was hoping you'd buy him a pork chop sandwich, and all he got was a greasy handshake.
LOL, it looks like "Slim" has already had too many pork chop sandwiches & Polish sausages...
Slim may not eat pork. Maybe just slip him a $20.
+Lucas Peterson that's very cool. Slim probably has some great stories. How was it eating that bone in pork chop sandwich? Don't they fear someone biting down on the bone? Excellent show always! 👍🏾
When Jim’s was on Maxwell street I did the same as that guy. I bought my first suit at Smokey Joe’s then went and had a Polish and Pork Chop at Jim’s
Man, I really like Lucas. He's by far the best presenter on this channel. Likable, down to earth, and knows his shit.
Yeah, he's very cool.
i think he abuses prescription meds
Zz Top Lucas puts me to sleep. No enthusiasm in his voice whatsoever.
pelswicks He's the food version of Bob Ross. Laid back AF and probably on enough downers to kill a Clydesdale.
I said the same thing before commenting, and your comment is the first I seen!
Polish sausage is LIFE!!!!
Lived in Poland for over 3 years! Brings back memories of kielbasa! So good! Thanks
I feel like Lucas would be a dude you'd meet in college on move in day, and he'd be your best friend from day 1. He gets along with everyone, and seems to have a real passion for what he does. Keep it up man!
DrBowman Passion?! He looks tired and bored... I can't stand his videos.
Jim’s is by far one the places I’ll always cherish from my childhood.
Their Polish sausage is amazing, but I also really love their fish sandwiches! I can only have a Pork Chop sandwich every so often, but their fish sandwich, I could have everyday!
Back in the day, after partying all night I would head down to Maxwell Street for a polish or porkchop sandwich. Let me just say that it was worth the drive at 3am. Thanks for the memories!
Lucas said you been coming here awhile? "bout 30 years". lmao longer than I've been alive
I prefer The Express Grill right next to Jim's Original! I've been going there for 35 years! I love the food plus I can always find a space to park my big truck there!
this guy needs a worldwide show. but, shot this way. none of this forced, over-produced travel channel stuff.
I love polish sausage and I love poland krakow and gdansk are such beautiful cities.
Lucas you're the man! Get this guy his own show
+GilbertSJH This is his own show! Thanks for watching!
+Eater no longer and with more production value. Like Matty Matheson who has his own 30-60 minute show on munchies. Shout out to "keep it Canada"!!! Lucas needs his own show make it happen!!
+ThePrankDudes I could watch Lucas go around the world! He is cool in his own personality.
+Eater I like the bite-sized (har har) segments.
GilbertSJH kjhjjhhhbbbhhh
We need more lucas peterson's video with the food
ar. 17 No thanks. Where's Nick?
That man Lucas always looks so tired but I get overly excited to see his videos. weird :))
+Hoang Mai Thai We shot from 3pm - 2am on that particular day! Thanks for watching!
He's high dude!
Eva Thai That what makes his videos so boring for us men.
marajuana
Every time I’m downtown or the south loop, I have to hit Jim’s.
Polish, onions, extra mustard, hot pepper and 2 grape sodas for my ride back home haha
I shouldn't probably be watching this late at night. making me so hungry. lol!
Man, Jim's on Maxwell brings me back. I loved eating there when I lived in Chicago...
They don't make 'em like Jim's.
I've never visited Chicago before, but now I just might have to
Ur NOT missing anything it’s a dirty rotten city, wit poisonous souled people!!
I visited Chicago once. I'm European. I told my cousin I wanted to try a real American hotdog. We went to a small kiosk and I tasted a delicious hotdog, but so spicy, that I could barely eat 🙈😂.
The only thing that has kept me subscribed to this channel is Lucas
He knows bout food inside out, and He is no snobby hipster bullshit.
y34r You must be gay. He is SO boring, always low energy, and sounds like he doesn't care.
You talking about that midget Nick Solares?
YES, YES, YES!!! CHI-TOWN!!!
WE LOVE YOU TOO!!
Absolutely delicious stopped there at 3am after coming from airport- legit line was filled with senior citizens-yes at 3am, I didn’t want mustard and got yelled at by the crowd to just let them make it they way they make it-got two wrapped to go-didn’t know it was a big deal-blown away with flavor wish I could’ve driven back to get another one. Very good
watched this, then for the first time ever i drove over and grabbed a chop sand. thank youz
Hey Lucas! Greetings from India... Will hardly ever get a chance to eat from the joints you go to, but i love your work and you are one of the best i have ever come across!!! Keep up the awesome work!! Cheers!
Looks so good!! Suprised they serve the pork chop with bone? Traditional way is boneless loin chop, battered and coated in bread crumbs shnitzel style. Beautiful.
lol there is so much love for this guy - watch once the show explodes and he starts getting fame, he'll start to get alot more hate in the comments section. Never fails to happen.
Shout out to @Eater from Poland.
This is how we like to eat!!!
Kiełbasa all the waaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!
P.s., always get the dark onions, they've been cooked longer and they're a lot sweeter.
LOL reading all these comments here.... one would think it's the "Lucas Show". He's got a lot of fans. Don't let it rush to your head too fast Lucas! Could he be the new Bourdain?
More places need a bone in pork chop sandwich. Thanks for another excellent episode. Blessings ChefMike
Lucas Peterson should have his own TV show...hands down !
Javier Ortega Uezyoga Why? To help people fall asleep?
Blessed to have grown up in Chicago. Hit up Jim's any chance I can. DaaaBest
I haven't even watched it but I kneejerked so hard when I saw this in my subscriptions list I've already liked and favourited it.
It’s no longer open 24/7. I read that UIC or some other sort of landlord wanted to enforce a curfew. But they’re still open really late and open really early
Yep it was UIC, as a student next door it’s actually really annoying having them close, it was always a treat when studying late at night to just walk down the street for a polish
God damn the polish kielbasas and onions look so tasty, I'm hungry now.
Best french fries
and spiciest spore peppers best place to go after a night out
+Stephanie Navarro Those peppers were SO spicy! Thanks for watching!
Stephanie Navarro yes true but around 3am on a Saturday there sooo packed
I used to hit the original corner, generally later in the evening. The major pain in the rear was constantly being accosted by the street
vendors pushing socks and videos. I don't have that happening after the move, nothing else has changed, at least to me. Jim's is
like a beacon in the night pulling people in, and I like that. I like the feeling of being able to pull in and hang out. I guess I'm glad
there's no inside seating. I'm also glad that Lucas didn't rave about these being the best dogs in the city. He explained what he felt
about them instead of just saying "These are Chicago's best hot dogs, bar none". The polish with mustard and onions is right on,
and this is the way fries should be served at every dog stand. I swear, someday I'm gonna try the pork chop.
always happy to see lucas on my homepage after a long day at school
Another excellent episode. Thanks!
At 2:02 the guy with the bears jersey mentioned that he got his first suit. If I’m not mistaken, I think he got it at a place called Sandy’s. I use to get suits from there many years ago.
Great work with the dining on a dime series!! Got me hungry "on the other side"
Eater- read your comments. THIS MAN HERE IS THE FRANCHISE.
get rid of all the other reviewers and hosts. they suck. They're not likeable. they're pedantic and condescending, pretentious and irritating. Most of all he doesn't come across as uppity snoot slumming it at a foodie place like the rest of those douches and hipster foodies. He's one of the people, not a person that would never have gone to a bad neighbourhood without a camera crew. This guy is a rare talent- do you know how hard it is to find someone to eat on camera- and have people like them??! Watching someone eat is inherently annoying. I can't stand watching my own wife freaking eating without wanting to backhand her face and send her flying over the table. This guy is a prize. hold on to him. Feed him. Nurture him. Give him what he wants. Fire the rest. that is all.
the people have spoken.
Up vote if you agree.
You allow your wife to sit and eat with you at the same time. That is where you are going wrong. An Iranian friend of mine has his wife bring the dishes to the table. Then she quietly waits in another room, and eats after the men have finished their meal. Men and women were not meant to dine together. Watching a woman eat destroys the illusion of feminine delicateness that makes the fairer sex so desirable to the better sex.
John Doe ok dis pleb
+Loop Set I made a comment similar to this just now and I didn't even read your comment haha. I really hope Eater reads all these comments and gives us more Lucas :)
I agree!!!!
Umm I did not read your entire statement. My agreement comes from only reading the first 5 sentences. Lesson learned and will not do this again.
The comparison of sausages and hot dogs is EXACTLY how i feel... hot dogs usually are kinda sucky... If you can get a sausage on a bun, get it!
only a minute in and it already looks fucking fantastic
big fan of lucas but nick is my true husbando
Am I the only one who likes all the presenters?
Andrei Simionescu I like every one. I actually like the guy from The Meat Show too.
Lucas, you are such a great presenter :)
I only subscribed because of you lucas. you made me love food in a very deep perspective. taste. texture. history. satisfaction. That's what I get every time I watch you eat. now I wanna have some too.
Lucas is the man!!! Taking over the food review game 👌👌👍
Lucas is a fantastic host, keep up the good work! Knowledgable with his own personality, but not over the top or outlandish like certain tv food show hosts we may see. It's all about mutual appreciation of good food at the end of the day. Just a matter of time before he gets his own show imo...judging by the many comments here I would imagine this is the general consensus.
Jim's original 👌🏻
Why do I watch these videos when I’m always hungry, time to update the food bucket list AGAIN. Man I can’t wait to try it
I miss you Lucas Peterson! Where were you to comfort us with food vids during lockdown?? (sad emoji)
Every time I go to comment on how much I like Lucas and the videos he's in EVERYONE ELSE has already done the same thing. Please have Lucas do more than just dining on a dime! Everyone would appreciate being able to see him more often than Nick "I won't even eat that because it's over cooked" "I hate ketchup on my burgers" Solares. I'm sure Nick is a nice guy but Lucas has a much more lovable personality. To those over at Eater, I hope you all see this!
Another top quality presentation from a natural, great work.
I like the Slim Jim combo at the end
he is the best
The perfect food buddy to hang out with! :D
I need this in my life.
Liked all your episodes Lucas.
Lucas needs to be in all the videos
He needs to do more shows NOW
Pork chop sandwiches!
Giy named “Slim” that is anything but. Gotta love it.
Lucas is right about the "snap" of the Polish. That tells me that it's a real casing and not a phony one.
I'm 6'-4", 280#, but I'd feel safer if Slim were there, especially if I had a lady with me.
Oh, if I went there after a Blackhawks' game with a lady, she's definatinate a keeper...
Hockey AND Polish food?! 😘👍
Next summer either going to Murica or Asia, if I decide on America I'll make dining on dime my travel plan xD
I recently subscribed, thought this was one dude channel. So very happy to see this is a collaboration
Great thing about lucas is that lucas likes to answer the comment
I couldn't tell, did sauerkraut go on them? Prefer mine with, but either way a sausage sangwich is amazing... I'm half dago and half pollock, Chicago is like my food paradise, honest to God, their Italalian and Polish cuisine is amazing, i also love chinese food, but I was ethnically blessed with mom and grandma's homemade Italian and Polish cuisine, God I love food...Was that a Zeppala he was eating at the end of video?
That is actually grilled onions on the polish. I can't believe he didn't mention them. That is what really makes the polish. That smell of those onions will stick on all your clothes. My girlfriend once went there and she said even the baby smell like the polish. LOL. All over the city you will see people try to imitate those grilled onions but honestly I have never seen anyone be able to do it. If you ever come to Chicago, you must go to Jim's. It's right near downtown so it's pretty central to anywhere you visit here.
Love you Lucas!!
Lucas is a great host. He should do longer videos and more often. This channel has too many sushi videos
i love a pork chop sammich😍
I wish we had a place like this in the western suburbs, nothing comes close.
I have to visit this place one day, the food looks so tasty.
place is da shit!! always hit it up
yo lucas you need your own show brooo
More of this guy please! The guy who just eats the whole menu isn't good at all.
No Lucas, you're the nicest! (and Slim too!)
You can find these polishes all over Chicago, just ask for a Maxwell Street polish, but Jims' is the best by far.
Those sport peppers have a kick too. U have to get the cheese sauce for the fries !!
So good lol 😂
before they put up his title, I thought Slim was a dude that was just hanging out.
more of this guy doing these types of videos. bring Slim along as well.
Damn those pork chops look good !!!
slim n lucas smooth..
Nice thing, but i have one question:
Which kielbasa? We have 50 or more types of kielbasa in Poland :D
Let's just say it's a "Jim's" polish. 🤣
That looks soooo good!
Great episode!
this guy is da best
Jeżeli kiedyś przyjade do Chicago to napewno pójde do Jim's! :D
I'm from Nova Scotia and we call "polish sausage" "poli sausage".
Just ate here today lol
Lucas, make your own channel man. Eater is holding you back from your true potential
+Chua Tijin the truth
I would definitely subscribe to a Lucas-only channel, but I'll have to do with this now, wich is okay
4:01 Lol QT
Chicago Maxwell Street Polish Sausage with Fries, Now That's Dining on a Dime ($10.oo) Cool.
I need a pork chop sandwich right about now
A guy named Slim and a guy named Jim. Slim Jim, R.I.P. Macho Man. All joking aside, best Polish in Chicago.
You need your own show and you need to re-do every review on Best of Chicago...
Only subscribed to this channel bec of lucas :)
