Steps:
- Bring a pot of water to a boil. Reduce heat to low, place hot dog in water, and cook 5 minutes or until done. Remove hot dog and set aside. Carefully place a steamer basket into the pot and steam the hot dog bun 2 minutes or until warm.
- Place hot dog in the steamed bun. Pile on the toppings in this order: yellow mustard, sweet green pickle relish, onion, tomato wedges, pickle spear, sport peppers, and celery salt. The tomatoes should be nestled between the hot dog and the top of the bun. Place the pickle between the hot dog and the bottom of the bun. Don't even think about ketchup!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Whisk or sift together dry ingredients in a medium bowl. Sifting ingredients is preferred to get a finer texture.
- Add eggs, melted butter and sour cream to dry ingredients. Mix until combined.
- Wet your hands with some water or oil in order to handling the dough easier and prevent it from sticking to your hands. Grab a handful of dough, form it into an oblong hot dog shape and place on a parchment lined baking tray. Continue with remaining dough. You can form your desired size. I can make about 5 normal sized hot dog buns with this recipe. Evenly place dough balls on the tray spacing about 1 inch apart.
- Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 12-13 minutes or until slightly hardened on the outside and spongy to the touch. Let cool for 3-5 minutes before slicing.
- While hot dog buns are baking, cook hot dogs on the grill, air fryer or oven at medium-high heat (350 to 400 degrees) for 5-10 minutes or until plump and juicy. You can also steam or boil you hot dog over some boiling water. Top hot dog buns with hot dogs and remaining toppings.

LOW-CARB HOT DOG AND DIPPING SAUCE
I love this mixture; it's deceptively simple but has great flavor. When my Mom and I did low-carb, we put this on almost everything we ate. The yellow mustard can be substituted with spicy if you wish.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the hot dog will be. Look for fresh, high-quality meats, vegetables, and condiments.
- Make sure the hot dog is cooked properly. A properly cooked hot dog should be juicy and flavorful, with a slightly crispy exterior. Avoid overcooking the hot dog, as this will make it dry and tough.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different toppings. There are endless possibilities when it comes to toppings for Chicago-style hot dogs. Get creative and try new things.
- Serve the hot dog immediately. A Chicago-style hot dog is best enjoyed fresh off the grill. Don't let it sit around for too long, or the bun will get soggy and the toppings will lose their flavor.
Conclusion:
The Chicago-style hot dog is a delicious and iconic American dish. With its unique combination of flavors and toppings, it's sure to please everyone. Whether you're a Chicago native or just visiting the Windy City, be sure to try a Chicago-style hot dog. You won't be disappointed.
