Sam's Super Samwiches — Restaurant in Homewood

I am pregnant and my cravings are up and down the charts. I tell you this baby wants to taste the history of my past. After, my appointment today. I was hungry and my cravings led me to a place I visited as a child. So, my mom and I went on a venture to Super Sam’s Hot Dogs 🌭 in Homewood AL. Now mind you, after Sam’s passing the family decided to relocate the restaurant. The old Sam’s Hot Dogs resided in the heart of downtown Homewood. It was my first time visiting the new location. I usually upload pics and vids, but I was to focus on getting me (3) polish hotdogs with mayo, mustard, onions, sour kraut, and relish. (3) other polish hot dogs with mayo, mustard, onions, and coleslaw. I told you all I was hungry, so do not judge?

I placed my order and noticed the cook pulled out a pack of Conecuh sausage. I paid it no mind because I thought he was also preparing a call in order. I took my seat and waited on my order as the cook instructed. Eight minutes later the cook stated my food was ready. In my mind I am like it takes up to 10-15 minutes to cook any sausage. It made me a little questionable. As he placed the smoked sausage on the bun. I saw that he was using Conecuh sausage. I advised him that is not a polish dog but smoke sausage. He then asked me what the difference is? I did not know if he was being sarcastic or serious 🧐 . Me being who I am I broke it down to him. A polish dog is long and slim in size with a firm texture. Whereas a smoke sausage is reddish brown and with a long extension, so it must be cut into proper proportions.

When I say I was so offended and disappointed 😔 . I told the cook I was still going to pay because I was hungry. Next, when he totaled out my food it came to a whopping $48.66. I know you are saying I would have left that hot mess right there. Though, I wanted you to see the receipt and the food quality.

I took one bite out of the smoke sausage, and it was not cooked thoroughly. I wanted to turn my car around and give the man a piece of my mind, but I live an hour and thirty minutes away. The rain 🌧️ was coming down hard and I just wanted to get home.

In conclusion, the authenticity and originality of the restaurant is lost. Also, if I wanted Conecuh sausage I could have gone to the store and purchased it at the same price I paid for each of the smoke sausages. I did include how much a pack cost. Illustrating how they are overpricing items. I rate this restaurant as a...

My neighbor wanted hot dogs for lunch. We agreed if he drove, I would pick up the lunch tab. I ordered 4 hot dogs - to be specific - I ordered 4 slaw dogs with beef sauce poured on them, 2 bags of chips, and 2 fountain drinks. The total amount with tax, but before tip on my credit card - $31.88. Right at $16 bucks for 2 hot dogs , a bag of chips and a drink! My neighbor says. "No way"! I really could not believe it myself until I opened my Chase app and I confirmed the total cost.

I am in shock at the cost of this quick lunch meal. I will not be returning. Gezz, I don't see how places like this stay open with prices like this.

Regarding the food itself - the hotdog buns were very fresh - but the beef sauce on the hot dogs - the temperature was not even close to being warm. Maybe tepid room temperature at best. Maybe so-so! Nothing close to Gus's hotdogs...

Yeah idk how Sam's Super Samwiches made it on the list of top 5 best hotdog spots in Birmingham. I just tried it for lunch and I ordered a chili dog and a burger.

Let's start with the chili dog. First look it looked as if someone just piled wet dog food on top. Like an insanely amount of chili was on this thing. Not to mention it was bland so I basically took a bite into pure mush.

The burger it looked good but ended up being extremely bland and the only thing I tasted was the sauce they put on it.

I just couldn't finish this. 2/5 from me. Go check this place out.

I'll be sticking with Paul's Hotdogs, Gus's Hotdogs, and Tony's Hotdogs from now on. Take Sam's off that top 5 list and put Paul's...
