Hot Dog Cart Of The Year? You Tell Me…

December 6th, 2010 · 32 Comments · Uncategorized

Hot Dog Cart News reader Jamie Hunter emailed me these pictures – and I when I looked at them I just about dropped my mouse.

And yes, it was built from my E-Z Built Hot Dog Cart Plans. Get yours by clicking here.

*Before you go charging off to look at the stunning photos below, I have a truly special (and free) offer for you at the end of this article. Believe me – you just can’t afford to miss out on this.

Hi Steve,

I had been joking with friends for the last 15 years that I was going to start a hot dog cart business but never acted on it.

I own an insurance agency and was getting burned out with working indoors and dealing with that industry. I need to be outside joking with people and serving one of America’s favorite comfort foods.

I looked online one day to see what it would take to get started and I bought your Hot Dog Biz 101 program. You really have done a great job with your program. You walk through every step and explain everything in a way that makes it almost impossible to fail.

I listen to the Carts of Cash CDs from your Hot Dog Biz 101 Course over and over to keep me motivated. My son says, “Not again” every time he gets in my truck.

I’m going to use your Cash Tracker book keeping program. It looks like it will make things simple.

I also have your E-Z Built Hot Dog Cart Video and Plans Package which I used to build the cart you see here. It is also done well.

I laughed with you on those funny parts in the E-Z Built DVDs. It made me feel like we were building the cart together. I know I paid for the program, but I feel like I had a friend helping every step of the way.

The signs on the cart are removable. I had banners made up and put snaps on the cart and the banners. I take the banners off when I am traveling and snap them on when I set up. I designed the banners and my menu board that lists all of my different hot dogs.

I took your advice and used the same design for everything – banners, menu board, business cards, flyers, etc. I found a program online that I used to design everything and had a sign printer make them up for me.

I’ll send you a picture of my menu board it came out really nice.

I am so glad to be going after my goal. It has injected that spice for life into me.

Thank you so much for your help,

Jamie Hunter

Nicely done. Stainless steel tops it off.

That’s one really sharp looking cart, Jamie
Great Job!! Good luck with the new business.

Steve-

You aren’t going to hold back Jamie’s secret construction methods for those of us who have already purchased your E-Z Built Hot Dog Cart Video and Plans Package are you? I might want to incorporate sheet metal into my own cart, too.

Dan Nicholson

I’m itching to
Tony // Dec 6, 2010 at 2:47 am

Nice cart. I have one in New Bedford, MA. Where are you located?
Pat // Dec 6, 2010 at 3:51 am

@Jamie: wonderful, wonderful execution and construction! Stretching the design appears to have worked very well; any practical problems standing at the steam table and having the fender in your way?
I am only a year into my “cart” obsession–hopefully will be up and running this Spring.

Hey, Steve, any chance of getting Jamie’s secrets if we have already purchased the videos and plans? My county says code is all metal, so I have been trying to figure out the best way to comply without being a metal engineer.
James // Dec 6, 2010 at 4:16 am

Jaime; Amazing job on that car. Unbelievable what the mind can come up with. Definately a
great show piece, should last you a long long time.

Ok Steve–I know someone is gooing to ask you this so I might as well be he first. What about us
that have already purchased your 101 set and the e-z built plans. How can we get the info on how to do one like Jaime…..
Bob Perry // Dec 6, 2010 at 5:43 am

Spectacular!
Now I’m hooked. I was going to buy a used cart, but now I’ll build my own. Sign me up for the ez built cart package.

chris // Dec 6, 2010 at 7:13 am

What about those who just purchased it and have not built ours yet. Can we get a copy also?
tenacity // Dec 6, 2010 at 7:23 am

Jamie, Congratulations on that beautiful cart and the decision to take control of your life. You are right, it is a whole lot more fun to laugh and joke with customers OUTSIDE!!! I am very interested in the how-to’s of the stainless construction and I know you will enjoy the extra room on top for preparing hot dogs with that cooler on the inside. Great job! Best of luck to you!

Curtis Ormond // Dec 6, 2010 at 7:58 am

Wow! Jamie, Nice looking cart! I felt the same way when I built my cart. It was as if I had a new friend (Steve) was right there with me and we were building it together. And, lol, I would play his tapes over and over and my son son, too, would say oh no, not again daddy. Now Connor, my son, loves working the cart with me. We have a blast! This business has really helped me through some tough times and I owe it all to Steve,

Thanks Steve,
Jason

Your cart looks great. Just, don’t make Steve’s head swell any bigger. But I have to agree he does have the right ideas to set up a great hot dog business.

I would like to thank everyone for the wonderful comments regarding my hot dog cart. It means alot coming from what I consider to be my hot dog family.

I am so glad that I have taken this step and can’t believe how every hot dog vendor that I have encountered has been very supportive. Thank you everyone for words of encouragement. It’s great to be part of the hot dog biz!

Sincerely,

Jamie
