In electrical motor/alternator parlance, a growler is a rather versatile electrical testing tool. It is used for testing armatures windings and other parts of a motor. It makes a growling noise as you rotate the armature in its fixtures.

You people are clueless. A growler is a dump, a shit, a turd, a steamer, as in-

"Hey Mike, where ya been, ya missed almost the whole third quarter, eh?"

"Oh yeah, well, see last night, I ate like a whole pizza and we kept drinkin', then I went to Taco Bell later, so at half time I had to go and take a real big growler, eh."

"How was it?"

"Nice. Nice, good growler."

nope...a hoagie is a grinder is a sub is a meatandcheeseandlettuceandonionandmayo on a bun

to me a growler is a hotdog with like chili stuff on top.

the only warning youll get thou about a growler is that it has to be eaten after midnight with at least two other drunken friends at your side and you can never call it a growler, you have to say texas hot dog else they kick you out!

In the UK it would be option 3 a large (read about the size of a dinner plate) pork pie.

I think the iceberg one is an American term not a Brit one.
