Ingredients
- 4 all-beef hot dogs
- 4 poppy seed hot dog buns
- 4 teaspoons yellow mustard
- 4 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
- 1 white onion
- 2 tomatoes
- 4 pickle spears
- 8 sport peppers
- 1 teaspoon celery salt
- 4 cups water
Directions
Step 1
Fill a medium saucepan or pot with 4 cups of water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to medium and carefully add the all-beef hot dogs. Let them simmer for about 5 minutes or until heated through.
Step 3
While the hot dogs are cooking, finely chop the white onion and slice the tomatoes into 8 wedges.
Step 4
Gently warm the poppy seed buns. You can do this by steaming them for about 2-3 minutes over the simmering hot dog water using a steamer basket, or by lightly toasting them in the oven.
Step 5
Place one cooked hot dog into each warm poppy seed bun.
Step 6
Top each hot dog with 1 teaspoon of yellow mustard and 1 tablespoon of sweet pickle relish.
Step 7
Sprinkle finely chopped onions over the relish, ensuring even distribution.
Step 8
Nestle two tomato wedges on one side of each hot dog and one pickle spear on the opposite side.
Step 9
Add two sport peppers per hot dog and finish with a dash of celery salt over the top.
Step 10
Serve immediately and enjoy your authentic Chicago-style hot dogs with a side of potato chips or fries!
