Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
You can't live in the Chicago area and not like Chicago-style hot dogs. I spent most of my adolescence abhorring hot dogs and all the weird things that go into them. But then I came to Chicago and saw the light. For those who don't know, a Chicago dog consists of:
all-beef (Vienna or Redhot) dog - mustard - dill pickle spear - pickle relish - chopped onion - sliced tomato - celery salt - sport peppers - poppy seed bun
...and most importantly, NO KETCHUP.
Any sandwich with a 2:1 pickle to hot dog ratio is alright by me.
