For sausage lovers and historians, Jim’s is Mecca. Started in 1941, the Maxwell Street sausages became a cornerstone of bustling Chicago. These sausages are juicy and tangy with just the right amount of kick. They are served with grilled onions and a smear of mustard in a beautifully soft bun. The standing-only format and eating on small metal ledges are hardly inspiring, but for sausage lovers, this cannot be missed.
