Ingredients

Directions

Preheat the fryer. Fill a stock pot 3/4 of the way full with water and bring to a boil. Add the hot dogs, reduce the heat to a simmer and cover. Cook until the hot dogs are plump, about 6 to 8 minutes. Fry the potatoes until golden brown, about 4 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally for even browning. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt and pepper. Place the hot dogs in the buns. Start topping the hot dogs with 2 tablespoons of each: onions, tomatoes, mustard and relish. Top with sport peppers to taste and sprinkle a little celery salt on top. Place each hot dog in the center of a piece of deli wrap. Place the fries next to the hot dog. Wrap the dog and the fries up tightly and serve.

    I ate 3 Chicago dogs last time there, and yea it needs a pickle, but the cucumber is pointless and tasteless. The "neon green" relish is just a visual thing, it didnt taste any different than regular sweet relish. Btw "EVERYONE" knows you don't use ketchup on hot dogs, thats why he didn't list it duh. This was a pretty good recipe, and tasted better than 2 of the 3 dogs I had "IN CHICAGO".

    Being born and raised in Chicago I grew up (and out on Chicago style Hot Dogs. I read the previous reviews and must disagree with them since the pickle and cucumber are variants which can be added to the basic Vienna Chicago Hot Dog. One universal ingredient to the classic "Dog with everything" is Neon green relish. It is available directly from Vienna Meats of Chicago. But you can make your own to both please your palate and your eyes. Get a12 - 16oz. jar of the sweetest pickle relish you can find. Add a 1/4 tsp of Tumeric and 2 - 3 drops of Blue food coloring. Mix very well and enjoy.

    By the way the order in which you build a Dog is very important.

    1. Bun
    2. Dog
    3. Mustard.
    4. Relish
    5 Onion
    6 Tomato
    7. Celery Salt
    (optional Cucumber spear
    Mutually exclusive
    (optional Pickle Spear
    8 Sport Peppers

    It might be a good hot dog but it's not a true Chicago style hot dog. Where's the pickle? Where's the cucumber?
