Original owner James “Buff” Racioppi invented the famous Italian hot dog in 1932, and there is no arguing that Jimmy Buff’s is still one of the best places in NJ to get your hands on one. The original Italian hot dog is fried in cholesterol-free soybean oil, right along with the crispy potatoes that top it. It is served on a Italian pizza bread with sautéed peppers and onions. The best way to experience the Jimmy Buff’s legend is ordering it as “a double”, which has two hot dogs on half a pizza roll along with all the toppings.
