The original, actual, meaning of 'Fast Food'. Not cutting corners on quality, but fast through skill and dedication. It's a joy to see these people work.
What these people are doing is so practiced, dextrous, efficient and precise that to someone as primitive in the kitchen as me it appears to be magic. I'm a little in awe.
Haven't done this, but I have worked in a kitchen before, and after a while it just becomes as automatic as breathing. For a month or so you have to think about what you're doing, after that your body just does it without you thinking about it and you just get faster and faster.
@@kettch777 Pretty much, I recall working at McDonald's in my middle and high school years, took me a good while to get used to it but shit becomes second nature the more shifts you work flipping the patties
The smell of onions cooking brings in way more customers than any advertisements ever could. Even people that don't even like onions love the smell of them carmalizing on a grill.
I live in Chicago and love this food. This is right off the expressway, a good location. It is like this all the time cause they never close, I have been there at least 15 times, day, night, summer and winter, they are always open . A great place to grab a hot meal for a any meal, their polishes are the best, cooked just right juicy and fresh. Never had a bad meal from here, never.
What a team! They are serving a huge amount of people! The amount of customers just tells you what an exceptional job they do! If I ever go to Chicago. I think I'll go here! SOLD! :)
I remember my parents driving from 115th Street south to get us Polishes . What a treat. I still love these today. I'm 64. Been eating them since 5 years old. Background music ,Do it any way ya want to do it.Chicago born and raised.
Jim's Original... Man when I used to work at the United Center, there was a stretch in the winter where me and my co-workers would hit that place up after every game we worked. Since they were open 24/7 we could even go after late games when we got off at 12am. We just got our orders, then ate in the car and talked because it was too damn cold to eat outside. Always got the same order every time. Bone-in Porkchop, Polish Sausage, and a Fish Sandwich. Always ate the extra fries the next day. Good times. If you live in Chicago and haven't gone here, you're missing out.
man it sucks dude. Jim's was forced by the city to close at 1 a.m. every night now b/c of all the fucking street crime that would happen around the area funniest thing is that Express Grill is right next door and never gets the attention Jim's does hahaha
I used to swing by there as an OTR driver when I got empty out of Jewels distribution center in Melrose Park. My normal reload was downstate in Urbana so I'd take the Ryan to 57. I ate many a polish sausage from this place normally getting 5 to go.
Deeelicious !!! It's amazing the way they look so greasy, but by the time you get them, they're not greasy at all. All the grease went to coat the onions with flavor, so they're not greasy either. Great system. I cant believe they can constantly make so much food and it never backs up. They do so much business ! I hope these guys are getting paid well. They do a hell of a job, making this great food, keeping so many people happy and keeping the owner making plenty of money. They should be appropriately rewarded. They're awesome !
@@TheTokyoPartners Sucks we have to think like that though. Should never see someone working hard and doing great and having to hope they are paid well. It should just be that way.
my biggest complaint is soaking the bread in mustard instead of putting it directly on the sausage. I love mustard and i feel like the bread would soak up to much of the mustard to really taste it. otherwise looks fantastic! definitely gonna be a place i visit if i'm ever in Chicago.
Love My home sweet Chicago. Nothing like Jim's Original. 1 Polish mustard and onions, 1 pork chop sandwich extra onions with peppers and 1 strawberry wildwood soda pop! = Heaven
Something about this part of the job- the lunch rush, the quick, snappy communication, people working autonomously, knowing precisely what their role is, and the satisfied customers afterward- makes jobs like this rewarding to me.
Ummmm the lunch rush? This is liyerally all day a line. Theyre open 24 hours you would be surprised how many ppl are here at 8 am for breakfast. I have been there when there wasn't a line but it is not very often
When I have visited America the food was so good that when I returned to Canada they had to weigh me one axle at a time. HA HA HA . I found wonerful kind American friends all over that beautyfull country.
That's gotta be one of the best food videos I've seen on youtube in a while. You could be starving to death & just watching this would save your life. Simple, classic ingredients done exactly the way they're supposed to be done. You see all them onions?? Maaaan..

Nobody understands how much I LOVE onions. I mean NOBODY. These guys just might be able to fill that onion void in my stomach. If I ever go to Chicago, this is the absolute first place I must go.
Oh, man! There is nothing like walking down Union on a chilly Fall afternoon into that warm cloud of heavenly grilled onion scent. Excuse me... There's a porkchop sammich piled high with onions and sport peppers calling out my name.
I remember my dad used to take me down to Halsted & Maxwell (the original Maxwells Street Polish) back in 92' the sausages with fries and can soda was $2.50 , now my dad is gone RIP , and here we are in 2023 and the original has been replaced with the UIC college stores, and Maxwell has been renamed to Jims Originals with plenty more locations and the same sandwiches cost about $7.00 😅 but I still love them❤❤❤❤ I'll have a pork chop with no cheese and extra hot peppers for you POPS 🥹😞❤
I was raised on Maxwell St. Polishes. You can smell those onions from the interstate. Those sausages may look plain but they pack a garlicky buttery spicy flavor like no other. You should see this place at 3am on a Saturday when the bars and clubs let out. Best grease in town to soak up the liquor.
So my Mom was from Poland and I grew up eating Kielbasa but secretly hating it. Just doesn't do it for me. But ... when I was ordering Vienna Beef natural casing Hot Dogs as a Father's Day present, I threw on their Polish Sausages, thinking my Dad would like them even though I don't. Whoah, best fucking hot dog I have ever had..amazing. I honestly think I could make bank selling them like this in my neck of the woods. This place is obviously busy.

Love this place. Had to drop a part off to a technician in Chicago last week and drove 25 minutes out of my way for the original Maxwell. Absolutely delicious!
I love watching masters at work. These guys are masters at what they do. Griddling and building sandwiches are basic skills, but to do what they are doing consistently at this speed takes high dexterity and attentiveness. As someone who has worked every job there is in restaurants, I recoiled at the news that restaurant workers would have to be paid a minimum of $20/hour. Most fast food workers simply aren't worth it; that's why so many restaurants have closed. As a manager and owner, I took the time to interview and train people who I thought were worth more than the fast food chains typically paid. I would increase their pay according to their hard work and contributions to the business. The way I see it, if you're not worth more than minimum wage, keeping you around is stealing a job from someone who is. The workers in this video would definitely be some of the highest paid workers in my own restaurant -- definitely over $20/hour. People who make this kind of effort to keep a business -- and their jobs -- going deserve to be rewarded.
I just find it amazing that this is considered "Low skill" work by many americans, and that people would scoff at the idea that those who work these sort of positions dont deserve to be well paid and taken care of. This is absolutely amazing to see and they are true craftsman on the grill and fryers.
Well said. And even if they weren't great the grill, it's still hard work. They're working while standing in a hot kitchen. I hate doing that for more than 30 minutes in my own kitchen. I can't imagine doing that for an 8 hour shift or longer.
No its just human deception. they deceive themselves into thinking they are better than others because of a job. delusion and ego. everyone got ego. the old people and the young people , mothers too. "oh look at them" "" oh look at his house" oh look at how they have a drug addict son. its just people. rise above them
@1 2 dont worry about being bashed your right. it takes much more training to become an asset manager or lawyer, than it does a fry cook. Its when you try and say your better someone or someone is lower because they have a less of a job. a lot of its a joke once u really look at it. there are rappers who tattoo their face and rap about xanax with autotune and they get millions. richer than lawyers. less work put in. some people make internet businesses and beomce rich, minimal effort. its about being happy
@1 2 Also if you dont learn by repetition how do you learn? if you are nopt given information by a mentor, then you must find it out yourself by making mistakes, and finding out what your doing wrong. if no one can tell you what is the proper method u must discover the mthod
Honestly when I compare a job like this compared to let's say a lawyer there's not much difference. At the end of the day you're providing a service to the people.
When I was working construction in Chicago I'd always stop here if I was driving by at lunch time... so good. And I think of this as the "new" Jim's, I remember the old one on Maxwell Street before UIC acquired all the land and that was the end of the Maxwell Street Market. But the Maxwell Street Polish lives on!
I had to stop watching. I had some smoked sausage in the freezer and fresh onion in the fridge... Wrong bread, but hey I can finish the video in peace.
This is also a Chicago favorite that doesn't get the kudos it deserves. A "Polish" with grilled onions and a Maxwell Street "pork chop" sandwich. The BEST city in the country for foodies! The best.
I grew up in The Chicago area many years ago. The flavor of the meats are like no where else, awesome! Nothing better than a good greasy sausage or burger smothered in grilled onions. My departed granny used to say "If it weren't for grease, everything would taste like shit"! She was right! Ha Ha, that's why they make Lipitor............. Great video!
They’re even better in person! I get the Double Cheeseburger with extra onions and mustard. Comes with the best fries you’ll ever eat! Best of all, it’s cheap!
I lived in the city from 94 to 2000 and when the bars would close I would go there if that’s what you see every fabric of society now I just go there at lunchtime at least once a week when I do my deliveries
I love it to the point, no crazy add-ons or custom orders like other places. You have great meat sandwiches and most importantly ONIONS, I eat them on everything.
Went to college at UIC and my girlfriend had her dorm in JST the building literally right next to it. Ate there couple times a week. Jim's always hit the spot
My dad used to take me to Maxwell St back in the day in the 1970s. I remember eating at Jims when it was on the corner of Halsted and Maxwell St. i remember all the yelling, and all the grilled onions on everything. They serve a good polish char dog and burger, both smothered in grilled onions. The bums used to keep warm with garbage can fires from Jims garbage cans. I can see they moved to a better neighborhood now. 😆😆🇺🇸🇺🇸
When I was in High School I worked at a small place with 2 windows and no seating. We made mexican food and were known for our tacos. It was called Tacos-In-A-Tub. No preformed shells. You started with a stack of shells, meat and aluminum hair clips to keep the tacos closed while in the fryer. Lunch time and on Friday or Saturday nights after football games looked just like that. I almost walked out my first night, but my friend helped me and talked me into staying. I learned and got fast. After this I think I'm making Pork Chops this weekend!
@@astat1 Easy answer for any Chicagoan; any major commercial 'restaurant'. You put a dirty looking place like this next to a McDeath or a Burger Kang and the latter two will go out of business.
Hi guys thanks alot for sharing a good time and getting to see how your take out Restaurant works I like it and appreciate you guys very much see ya from Alaska 😊
these guys are phenomenal. just watching them is making my mouth water looking at how they put those hot dogs together. i take my hat off to you fellas. awesome skills.
@@calvinwong365 I agree with the simple part; but it wasn't really ''clean'', the oil looked way too old, and if you look carefully, everything is dirty around
I just love how the onions compliment every sandwich you get I also love how fast and dedicated they are to make sure they get your food made tasty been enjoying since a kid use to go get this as young as 8 on halsted and boy was it packed esp on the weekends just goes to show from the until now they still make the best sandwiches in chicago with dedication

The University is the Landlord and has told Jim's to Close early No More Late Nights. They sell 1200 in just Polish per day.
Hello from Russia. Ваша команда отлично делает свою работу, всё выглядет очень вкусно, желаю вам всем крепкого здоровья.
😂🎉🎉🎉😢
You just got to love how they take those sauteed onions and covered up the chops and burgers with them🤩🤩
So original.
The original, actual, meaning of 'Fast Food'. Not cutting corners on quality, but fast through skill and dedication. It's a joy to see these people work.))))
Bruh..

Love this place. Had to drop a part off to a technician in Chicago last week and drove 25 minutes out of my way for the original Maxwell. Absolutely delicious!
Are you a fan of Morocco,❤❤ welcome to see the most beautiful places in it👍🔔🥰🥰🌹🌹
Great video. That onion pile is something else. I like it how the chefs have a view.
legend has it that whoever gets to take the last onion in that grill will become master of the world
@Williams Mason Man, what nonsense is that the cryptocurrency market is a lie to the people.
And I Will Be the ONE!!!
i can smell that grill
@Williams Mason Your into Crypto?! And making money with it, I need to get into that, so it’s not gimmick! 🤔
I love watching masters at work. These guys are masters at what they do. Griddling and building sandwiches are basic skills, but to do what they are doing consistently at this speed takes high dexterity and attentiveness. As someone who has worked every job there is in restaurants, I recoiled at the news that restaurant workers would have to be paid a minimum of $20/hour. Most fast food workers simply aren't worth it; that's why so many restaurants have closed. As a manager and owner, I took the time to interview and train people who I thought were worth more than the fast food chains typically paid. I would increase their pay according to their hard work and contributions to the business. The way I see it, if you're not worth more than minimum wage, keeping you around is stealing a job from someone who is. The workers in this video would definitely be some of the highest paid workers in my own restaurant -- definitely over $20/hour. People who make this kind of effort to keep a business -- and their jobs -- going deserve to be rewarded.
I just find it amazing that this is considered "Low skill" work by many americans, and that people would scoff at the idea that those who work these sort of positions dont deserve to be well paid and taken care of. This is absolutely amazing to see and they are true craftsman on the grill and fryers.
Well said. And even if they weren't great the grill, it's still hard work. They're working while standing in a hot kitchen. I hate doing that for more than 30 minutes in my own kitchen. I can't imagine doing that for an 8 hour shift or longer.
No its just human deception. they deceive themselves into thinking they are better than others because of a job. delusion and ego. everyone got ego. the old people and the young people , mothers too. "oh look at them" "" oh look at his house" oh look at how they have a drug addict son. its just people. rise above them
@1 2 dont worry about being bashed your right. it takes much more training to become
an asset manager or lawyer, than it does a fry cook. Its when you try and say your better someone or someone is lower because they have a less of a job. a lot of its a joke once u really look at it. there are rappers who tattoo their face and rap about xanax with autotune and they get millions. richer than lawyers. less work put in.
some people make internet businesses and beomce rich, minimal effort. its about being happy
@1 2 Also if you dont learn by repetition how do you learn? if you are nopt given information by a mentor, then you must find it out yourself by making mistakes, and finding out what your doing wrong. if no one can tell you what is the proper method u must discover the mthod
Honestly when I compare a job like this compared to let's say a lawyer there's not much difference. At the end of the day you're providing a service to the people.
When I was working construction in Chicago I'd always stop here if I was driving by at lunch time... so good. And I think of this as the "new" Jim's, I remember the old one on Maxwell Street before UIC acquired all the land and that was the end of the Maxwell Street Market. But the Maxwell Street Polish lives on!
Lucky you! Looks yummy!
I like the fact that you can view the Willis Tower if waiting in line. That building never gets old to see!
Did I just watch this entire video? Yes. Yes I did. And, it was worth every second of it lol
Every time I stop back home, I get four to go. My wife likes the pork chops.
Man you were right inside the action. So personal. Love it
This kitchen is the definition of efficiency and food they serve looks delicious!!
I watch a lot of videos, by far one of the best recently. Longtime chef/cook...nice to see a true crew at work. 👍👍👍👍
What an idea to watch this knowing I have no food at home and its midnight LOL
MMMMM GRILLED CHOPS
Same... all I've had is instant noodles and this video popped up on my feed, lol.
I had to stop watching. I had some smoked sausage in the freezer and fresh onion in the fridge... Wrong bread, but hey I can finish the video in peace.
I’m eating 2 hits dogs watching this😭😭 wish I had one of then
This is also a Chicago favorite that doesn't get the kudos it deserves. A "Polish" with grilled onions and a Maxwell Street "pork chop" sandwich. The BEST city in the country for foodies! The best.
who ever is chopping the onions needs a gold medal lol
Fuck Gold...I saw a Diamond encrusted Platinum one....this is Fucking Amazing...I wanna eat 4 of them😂😂😂😂😂
They using onion machine choppers.
That's how Chicago restaurants do their onions
Thought that was sauerkraut
Lol!!
I grew up in The Chicago area many years ago. The flavor of the meats are like no where else, awesome! Nothing better than a good greasy sausage or burger smothered in grilled onions. My departed granny used to say "If it weren't for grease, everything would taste like shit"! She was right! Ha Ha, that's why they make Lipitor............. Great video!
watching from the uk, making my mouth water
Those TRIPLE patty’s w/cheese and onions look savage AF!
it's Chicago, it's all savage AF
They’re even better in person! I get the Double Cheeseburger with extra onions and mustard. Comes with the best fries you’ll ever eat! Best of all, it’s cheap!
My favourite food is Shawarma
@@boogitybear2283 facts
@@boogitybear2283 how much is the double cheese burger with fries. And what do they charge for the sausage sandwich? Thanks
Used to eat there alot when i was driving for Roadway Express out of Chicago heights , Sooo Good i miss it
I probably would give up on runnin if I ate there.
Someday, i would like to visit there. Looks delicious:)
Oh. YESSSSS! As a born Chicagoan I'll tell you, for a polish sausage, THIS is the place to be!
I lived in the city from 94 to 2000 and when the bars would close I would go there if that’s what you see every fabric of society now I just go there at lunchtime at least once a week when I do my deliveries
Mind blown...true pros at their finest.
Pure video, no distractions, I felt like I was there! Great job. I am now starving.
Damn those onions! Especially when they put the sausage, burger patties, and the pork chop with the onions.
A small child could go unnoticed if 20 lbs of of grilled onions falls on it.
I love it to the point, no crazy add-ons or custom orders like other places. You have great meat sandwiches and most importantly ONIONS, I eat them on everything.
THE OLD ONIONS KEEP YOUR MEAT MOIST
THEN IT GETS TRASHED FOR NEW ONES
MMMMMMM

My dad used to take me to Maxwell St back in the day in the 1970s. I remember eating at Jims when it was on the corner of Halsted and Maxwell St. i remember all the yelling, and all the grilled onions on everything. They serve a good polish char dog and burger, both smothered in grilled onions. The bums used to keep warm with garbage can fires from Jims garbage cans. I can see they moved to a better neighborhood now. 😆😆🇺🇸🇺🇸
The way they layer in the pork and burgers with the onions to let them soak up the flavor! wow
it also keeps them warm as well!
I enjoyed a nice smoked brisket from smoking pig here in South Carolina, while watching this food service. Delicious Eatin.
The Polish sausages and fries are incredible, and the pork chop sandwich is amazing
My first time (at the original location about 1979) I ordered fries and was told, "we don't fuck with that shit." 🙂
How much was it ?
When I was in High School I worked at a small place with 2 windows and no seating. We made mexican food and were known for our tacos. It was called Tacos-In-A-Tub. No preformed shells. You started with a stack of shells, meat and aluminum hair clips to keep the tacos closed while in the fryer. Lunch time and on Friday or Saturday nights after football games looked just like that. I almost walked out my first night, but my friend helped me and talked me into staying. I learned and got fast. After this I think I'm making Pork Chops this weekend!
Those look delicious! I love the caramelized onion with mustard!
Oh yes!
fat population in this criminal country!
Brings back memories of me working at the ball games, as a teen. Dogs, fries, and beer.
I'm a lifelong Chicagoan and this is my favorite place to eat in the city.
Which one is your least favorite?
@@astat1 Easy answer for any Chicagoan; any major commercial 'restaurant'. You put a dirty looking place like this next to a McDeath or a Burger Kang and the latter two will go out of business.
Man do I believe that!
Where is it?
Shepard approve. :)
Damn even after you done eating and watching this video you still get hungry
Everybody working like a well oiled machine. It looks so good! Wish I could have about 4 or 5!
@Venancio Rodrigues I guess speaking the truth makes you a Karen now lol #dumbeddown
@Bolshevism-19 I mean the Karen is true I guess wouldn't hurt to try bcs that looks soo good
I got 6 of them last weekend 👍🌭🌭🌭🌭🌭🌭🌭🌭🌭🌭

When I go 2 Chicago I'm going 2 eat here! Man them burgers🍔 that pork chops 🥪 sandwich 🌭 hotdog looking good! Oh man them onions!🧅
Man respect to you guys. Such great team work and organized spot
the onion nest keeps the burgers and hotdogs safe
Keep it warm
that’s why jim’s original is located in s. union street because of those massive onions
I firmly am able to say.....that we have FINALLY found Bill Raftery's Onions😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 SEND IT IN JEROME😂😂😂😂😂Those are GREAT onions Jim Nantz😂😂😂😂😂😂
They're all tucked in until they're called up.
If it takes you a year to learn something like that you have come serious issues.
Hi guys thanks alot for sharing a good time and getting to see how your take out Restaurant works I like it and appreciate you guys very much see ya from Alaska 😊
these guys are phenomenal. just watching them is making my mouth water looking at how they put those hot dogs together. i take my hat off to you fellas. awesome skills.
It’s always fun and interesting to see people work so fast with food. These guys have definitely perfected the craft.
👍Right
The craft of laying out sausages?
@@primslimO The craft of slapping on mustard.
Craft of doing witchcraft
@@primslimO 😂😂😂😂😂😂
As someone who used to live in Chicago area, I can vouch for this place!
This is my first time to see pork chop sandwiches like this. Looks so good!!
Na real é a bisteca do porco....mesmo assim é muito bom com certeza
@@charlesgarcia3622 actually they are pork chops. They are listed as pork chops on the menu.
Pork chops are good. But not this way. 🤢🤢
日本からコメント。まさにアメリカ！って感じで、シンプルイズベスト、本当に美味しそう。紙に包まれた宝物って感じ。日本だとマクドナルドやバーガーキングなどがあるけど、個人で頑張ってるお店の味って、まさに未知の味。食べてみたいなぁ、、、
"What would you like with your onions sir?" Seriously though, moving the cooked meats to the onion mountain and covering them is genius.
I love how simple everything is and clean and not complicated. Some restaurants just do too much with their rainbow super Saiyan burgers
@@calvinwong365 rainbow super sayan 😂😂😂😂😂
@@calvinwong365 I agree with the simple part; but it wasn't really ''clean'', the oil looked way too old, and if you look carefully, everything is dirty around
Driving down 90/94 in either direction you can smell those onions 🧅, it smells delicious! 😋 I drive by there every day.
@@MidnightatMidian that’s called “flavor”
Newby: Where do I start today boss?
Boss: I'm going to send you to the onions peeling and cutting for few hours and we'll see if you pass the test 🤣🤣
Thats easy... Peel off husk and in the slicer (done it so many times... no more tears)
honestly, after a night out in the middle of winter, there's nothing better than getting food at Jim's
I just love how the onions compliment every sandwich you get I also love how fast and dedicated they are to make sure they get your food made tasty been enjoying since a kid use to go get this as young as 8 on halsted and boy was it packed esp on the weekends just goes to show from the until now they still make the best sandwiches in chicago with dedication
Secret ingredient? Onions
