I worked at a restaurant named Piccolo Mondo in Pine Brook, NJ and although we could have anything from the kitchen for our dinner break one of the crew would drive to Jimmy Buff's to get the kitchen staff whatever they wanted. They were delicious and made some great memories for me as a teenager working my way up the restaurant ladder. Its been years and this video makes me want one now more than ever. Thanks for the posting.
I made some of these a while back. The thing I couldn't make though was the pizza bread. So I stuffed the ingredients into a loaf of Italian bread cut in half. It turned out pretty good. Delicious.
I remember improvising and making the bread with homemade pizza dough that I let rise once and punched down and let rise a second time before baking it and it turned out very good. I like to grill or sauté the peppers and onions with a little bit of garlic, olive oil, and fresh Italian herbs like basil and oregano to give them more flavor and I only deep-fried the hot dogs and sliced potatoes in peanut oil and the finished product was like what I had enjoyed on prior visits Jimmy Buff's and Dickie Dee's but better because the potatoes were crisper and the peppers and onions actually had great flavor and weren't obliterated with grease.
I have not eaten here, irish man who lives in kentucky, but i would love to try, hoping to travel to the area soon, being irish and with potatoes on the hotdog, this may be the only way i would eat a hot dog with ketchup, i wonder if they serve with a marinia sauce, that might be good also
I was a driver for Appetito Provision Co in Union City and I delivered every Saturday to a Jimmy Buff in Newark. it was a little hole in the wall in a run town section of Newark (14th St). But they served the best greasy hot dog I ever had.
There used to be a Jimmy Buff's on Springfield Ave, Vauxhall, N.J. When i was growing up. I loved the double Italian with a burger, and a hot dog together with the onions, peppers and potatoes. Those were the good old days. It's time to visit N.J. To get me some Jimmy Buff's. ...
14th Street NEWARK, Springfield Ave. IRVINGTON, those were the real Jimmy Buffs...tried West Orange, Scotch Plains, Kenilworth....nah, not the same. But not bad either.

What makes Jimmy buffs the best is the bun they make for the sandwiches. The bread is Pizza dough bread and it is amazing. On anything else it is just not the same. You can get the onions and peppers, etc… but the bread.. that is hard to get. You have to make it.
Help! I'm from 14th Ave Newark, grew up eating these. I'm now baking my own bread and trying to get a recipe for the "pizza bread". Is it pizza dough like some suspect? How is it baked in the round with the hole?
Hi ukcowgirl,nice to know you like JB's.Yes the West Orange location is still there.You can always smell that distinct aroma. These are the BEST Italian hot dogs you'll ever have.
hey, i am a jersey girl in england and my mouth is watering, just thinking about a jimmy buff's. don't forget about the one in west orange, or is that gone now? we could sometimes smell them at washington school. mmmmmmmmmm, goood!!!!!
THATS RIGHT " HOT DOG'S BEGAN IN NEWARK, NJ. " A MEAL ON A BUN "!!! SINGLE OR DOUBLE HOT DOG"!!! GOOD OLE DAY'S"!!! CHEESEBURGER'S AT IRVING'S MILK BAR ON SPRUCE ST, NEWARK NJ.
@Parker4321 i ate at the 1 that use 2 be on Springfield Ave. in Irvington & it was so greasy it ran rite thru me!....neva again!...gotta eat it while sitn on a toilet!
I went to the East Hanover JB yesterday and it was fairly dissapointing....good...but not worthy of a Travel Channel stop. Just my opinion. I got a double combo (hot dog, sausage, potatoes and onions) and it was just ok...I wouldn't go back
This was one of the greasiest hot dogs I have ever eaten. It gave me a stomach ache, I basically ate a hot dog, onion and pepper, potatoe, grease soup in a bun. Yuck.

When you hit 93 years old I think you can stop worrying about what you eat and eat whatever the hell you want

When I was a kid, the Italian sausage at the West Orange Jimmy Buff's was my favorite meal in the whole world
I remember these hotdogs growing up in Newark in the 1960's to this day it is my favorite all time sandwich
I used to go the Jimmy Buff on Washington st West Orange.
Still there!
Yep. He always comes out and throws batteries at cats and dogs.
@@oldironsides4107 Die Hard or Interstate 😂?
Oh man. My mouth is watering after watching that video. I HAVE to try one of these!
Childhood memories

Pete's Diner in Freehold Twp. (Long gone) used to make these back in the '60's. My dad used to bring 'em home for dinner once a week in Summer.
Love Jimmy Buff's...used to hang in the one in West Orange! YUMMY!!!!

Jimmy Buffs and Dicki Dees. Best hot dogs in Jersey!
Love my Jimmy Buffs dogs!!!!!

I agree...Irvington was the best for me...tried the others but not the same as Irvington
Correction ; 14th Street .😃
@@JCort518 ...Irvington was the best. Guy there had real dirty fingernails for even better taste .....
Lived in Irvington from 58 to 71......damn I miss them!!

The original Newark location is gone along with East Hanover. So you have to go to West Orange or Kenilworth.
Growing up I went to the Irvington location and then went to the Scotch Plains location. Went to the East Hanover location once it wasn't the same.
The one in Scotch Plains is just as good...great dogs!
Too bad it's gone along with Bowcraft.
Chicago is # 1. Go back to Jersey.
I came for the fat guy at the end😄
The fat guy at the end should be their spokesman/mascot, you just know he loves jimmy buff's, lol, have a good day friend

@Parker4321 Double sausages from Styvesant Avenue in Irvington, NJ were the greatest!

Looks easy to make
Easy to make but even easier to drive n get. by the time you buy all the ingredients... you know.
@Joeiscool24 - Are YOU kidding? What years are you talking about? I'm talking 1970-1971...you talking the same era?

The Jimmy Buffs in West Orange is 10x better than the East Hanover one...
I like Dickie Dee's on Bloomfield Ave. in Newark!!!
Nothing wrong there, another old school joint.
Jimmy Buff's Italian hot dogs outdo th Burget Kings and McDonald's, the hot dogs don't taste like " cardboard" like those burgers do, "fast food" lol
West Orange is were I go for the dogs, not the best part of the state but the foods good
Dicky Dees I think its in Newark/East Orange
The only thing in Florida that tastes the same as anything, ANYTHING, N-E-TING, from New Jersey is a friggin 9mm...
Tommy, tell them you are just changing the name from jimmy buff's to Tommy buff's , lol, let me know how that works out for you, lol

They should have went to the West Orange location.
I love classic hot dog joints, but sorry Jimmy Buff - that looked disgusting. "Hot dogs inside pizza crusts with weird toppings!" Borf
This was one of the greasiest hot dogs I have ever eaten. It gave me a stomach ache, I basically ate a hot dog, onion and pepper, potatoe, grease soup in a bun. Yuck.
they guy at 2:04 should not be eating anything the is deep fried in anything.
😂😂😂
The East Hanover Jimmy Buff's sucks. They need that dirty West Orange water.
Tabese ase
