Ingredients
- 1 link beef hot dog
- 1 piece poppy seed hot dog bun
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 1 tablespoon sweet pickle relish
- 1 tablespoon chopped onion
- 1 piece dill pickle spear
- 2 pieces tomato wedges
- 2 pieces pickled sport peppers
- 1 pinch celery salt
Directions
Step 1
Fill a medium-sized pot with water and bring it to a simmer over medium heat.
Step 2
Place the beef hot dog into the simmering water and allow it to cook for approximately 5 minutes or until heated through.
Step 3
While the hot dog is cooking, lightly steam the poppy seed bun for 1-2 minutes to warm it up without making it too soft. You can do this by placing the bun over the pot using a steaming rack or improvising with a sieve.
Step 4
Once the hot dog is heated, remove it from the pot using tongs and place it inside the steamed poppy seed bun.
Step 5
Drizzle the yellow mustard over the hot dog evenly.
Step 6
Next, add the sweet pickle relish down one side of the hot dog and the chopped onion down the opposite side.
Step 7
Place the dill pickle spear on one side of the hot dog, nestled between the hot dog and the bun.
Step 8
Tuck the two tomato wedges on the other side of the hot dog.
Step 9
Add the pickled sport peppers on top of the hot dog.
Step 10
Finish with a pinch of celery salt sprinkled evenly over the toppings.
Step 11
Serve immediately and enjoy your authentic Chicago style hot dog!
