Chicago Dogs image

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.

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 all-beef hot dogs
4 poppy seed hot dog buns (see Cook's Note)
Yellow mustard
1 dill pickle, quartered lengthwise
1 medium tomato, cut into 8 wedges
Chicago-style relish (see Cook's Note)
1/2 sweet white onion, finely diced
8 sport peppers (see Cook's Note)
Celery salt

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.
