According to the site, the best hot dog joint in all of Wisconsin is The Vanguard , located at 2659 S. Kinnickinnic Avenue in Milwaukee. Here's what the site had to say:

"The Vanguard is an embodiment of Milwaukee — chilled out, unpretentious, and great. People like the variety of sausage options, with the menu split into three sections: classics, sausage by the city, and style sausages. When you're in Wisconsin, you have to order the city's namesake dog. The Milwaukee is a house-made sausage served in a fresh roll, topped with cheese curds, Cheddar, and Cheez Whiz.
