Chicago-Style Hot Dog recipe

Vienna Beef hot dog (natural casing- Nathan's has a pretty good substitute)
in a Steamed poppyseed bun (from S. Rosen's- but I can't find poppyseed buns out here... )

Top with

  • yellow mustard
  • bright green relish
  • fresh chopped onions
  • juicy red tomato wedges
  • a kosher-style pickle spear
  • a couple of spicy sport peppers
  • a dash of celery salt



OK...NOW I made myself hungry!!!
I'm leaving. now, to go to Lakewood to get some Hot Dogs
