Santa Dog

This is my last dispatch from Denver: #1 Thing to Do in Denver When You’re Hungry.

Find Biker Jim’s hot dog cart on the 16th Street Mall, he’s out in front of Palomino.

Order a Reindeer Dog.

He’ll happily give you a bun with a split alaskan caribou sausage. In the split he’ll caulk a thick stream of cream cheese from a gun and crown it with some fried onions. (Yes, you will forever now put cream cheese on a split sausage). Add the jalapenos and hot mustard to your own liking. It’s not gamey at all, it’s spicy and rich. Maybe try the elk cheddar brat or the wild boar brat with chopped apricots and cranberries. Take a moment to breathe in the good Rocky Mountain air in blessed thanks.

Then go to a Rockies game and watch them POUND the Mets while you suck down some Easy Street Wheat.
