We asked Scott from Underdogs Mobile how he got started in the food truck business.  He shared with us he was was “very unhappy working in the corporate world and my wife actually came up with the idea. We felt there was room in the Dayton market to succeed if we could find our niche.”  He’d worked at a few restaurants while growing up in the Chicago area and he says with ” Dumb luck, some planning and a lot of hard work” they launched Underdogs Mobile.
Being from the Chicagoland area, he was inspired by traditional street vendors. “People ask if our Chicago Dog is legit and I just laugh and give a look. It’s the real deal- a dog- an all beef dog, dill pickle spear, tomato, relish, onion, mustard, poppy seeds, celery salt and sport pepper.”
This hot dog is one of their best sellers, along with the Home Run dog (topped with mac & cheese and crumbled bacon) and they rock A LOT of their now famous tots.
Our season will kick off Mid-March and run into the Fall. Since we’re on wheels we keep the truck moving so following us is best. We are always looking to add new events, companies and locations to serve at. No fans only friends!
Find Underdogs at:

Wed, 3/24 11am-1:30pm – Bell Elementary Bellbrook, 4122 N Linda Dr
Fri, 3/26 11am-2pm – Kettering at Governor’s Place, 3120 Governor’s Pl Blvd

About Lisa Grigsby

Lisa Grigsby is a Special Events Director with over thirty years experience in promotions, event coordination and public relations.

Owning Jokers Comedy Cafe for 20 years taught Lisa to maintain a sense of humor under pressure. She credits Leadership Dayton for exposing her to the amazing assets of the region and Clothes That Work for being her reason she stayed in Dayton. Her proudest accomplishment as a past president of the Miami Valley Restaurant Association was creating Restaurant Week, a twice a year tradition that continues to grow and benefit local charities as well. As a foodie, it's only natural that she continues to promote local restaurateurs with DaytonDining.

As a Dayton Catalyst, her desire to have ONE community calendar and advocate for the amazing assets of the region helped create the vision for the relaunch of DaytonMostMetro, now Dayton 937.com
