The long-lost recipe was a staple at the old Mutt and Jeff&#8217;s Drive-In at the corner of Meridian Road and Seventh Avenue.<\/p>\n<p>Drew McLeod, the Tallahassee restauranteur whose Paradise Grille rose on the old Mutt and Jeff&#8217;s site in the 1990s, said the love for the original eatery has never waned.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think people just have such fond memories of their experiences at Mutt and Jeff&#8217;s, whether it was the cherry cokes, or the smashes or the chicken and burgers or the dogs,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>McLeod was able to obtain the secret recipe for those legendary slaw dog, &#8220;but it is a different type of hot dog than most people are used to.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He says the new version features a barbeque sauce that, &#8220;cooked down and it&#8217;s hard to source the material. So I&#8217;ve been fortunate enough to find those and bring it back to life.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>McLeod, who now owns the Savour Restaurant on Park Avenue, cooked up more than 100 Mutt and Jeff-style slaw dogs for visitors to the Downtown Market on Saturday.  <\/p>\n<div class=\"fullattribution\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google-analytics.com\/__utm.gif?utmac=UA-5828686-4&amp;utmdt=A+Legendary+Tallahassee+Treat+Returns&amp;utme=8(APIKey)9(MDA4MzU1MzUzMDEzMTkyMzAwMzY5MjY1Mw004)\" \/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":7536,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"tdm_status":"","tdm_grid_status":"","wds_primary_category":0},"categories":[],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.3 -
