CHICAGO DOGS
Now you don't have to make a trip to the Windy City to enjoy a version of the signature hot dogs smothered in classic condiments. A Chicago-Style Dog or Chicago Dog is usually boiled, but we chose to steam ours-it gives the hot dog a good snap, and the steamed buns are warm and squishy in the best way possible.

Steps:
- Fill a large pot fitted with a steamer basket with 1 to 2 inches of water. Cover with a tightly fitting lid and bring to a boil. Add the hot dogs to the steamer basket, cover and steam until the hot dogs are heated through, about 5 minutes. Add the buns to the pot, cover and steam the buns until they are warm, about 1 minute.
- Remove the buns from the pot and drizzle the inside of each with mustard. Top each with a hot dog, then nestle one pickle wedge on one side of each hot dog and 2 tomato wedges on the other side. Top with more mustard and relish, onions and peppers and sprinkle with celery salt.

CHICAGO DOG
Some traditions you just don't mess with, and a Chicago dog is one of them. All-beef frankfurters are "dragged through the garden," meaning they're piled with a bunch of veggie condiments. Try rocking these dogs at home for your next casual buffet.

CHICAGO-STYLE HOT DOGS
Often described as "dragged through the garden" - referring to all of the vegetable toppings - this hot dog is a joy to eat in honor of the Windy City. A proper Chicago dog is an all-beef frankfurter (such as Vienna Beef) in a poppy seed bun, topped with yellow mustard, neon-green sweet pickle relish, chopped white onion, tomato slices, a dill pickle spear, pickled sport peppers and celery salt. This stovetop recipe is very forgiving, and there are ways to adapt: No poppy seed buns? Just sprinkle a pinch of loose poppy seeds over regular hot dog buns slathered in melted butter. No neon-green sweet relish? Stir a drop or two of green food coloring into regular sweet relish. If you can't find Chicago-style sport peppers, then sliced pepperoncini works in a pinch. Don't skip the celery salt; its herbal lightness makes these dogs shine.

Steps:
- In a large skillet over medium, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Without splitting them in half completely, gently flatten the hot dog buns and place them seam-side up in the pan. Move them around to catch all the melted butter and cook until very lightly toasted at the edges, 1 to 3 minutes. Remove the buns and set aside.
- Raise the heat to medium-high and add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter to the pan. When the butter is melted, add the hot dogs and cook, rolling occasionally until all sides are browned and looking crispy, 3 to 5 minutes. (See Tip if grilling.)
- Place the cooked dogs in the buns and top each with as much yellow mustard, relish and onion as you like. On one side of each dog, place a couple of tomato slices; on the other side, place a single pickle spear. Top with as many sport peppers as you can handle. Generously season with the celery salt and serve immediately.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
- Make sure the poppy seed bun is fresh and soft.
- Toast the bun lightly to give it a slightly crispy texture.
- Cook the hot dog in a pan or on a grill until it is slightly charred.
- Add the toppings in the correct order for the authentic Chicago-style experience.
- Serve the Chicago-style hot dog immediately with a pickle spear and a side of fries.
Conclusion:
The Chicago-style hot dog is a classic American dish that is enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a delicious and unique sandwich that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. With its combination of flavors and textures, the Chicago-style hot dog is a must-try for any food lover.
