Chicago Style Hot Dogs Recipe

Updated on April 25th, 2019

This is how they do hot dogs in Chicago. I personally have never had a Chicago style hot dog but had always wanted to try it. A Chicago style hot dog is basically a hot dog with a lot of condiments. Some of the condiments include tomato, dill pickle, relish, onion, and hot peppers. If you are from Chicago chances are you already know all about these. I tried to keep this recipe as authentic as possible but unfortunately, some items seem nearly impossible to find unless you order them. Probably the hardest authentic item on this list to find is the sport peppers. If you cannot find them just omit or some recommend Tabasco peppers if you can find those. Putting all these condiments on a hot dog might sound strange to some but trust me, it’s delicious! These hot dogs are perfect for the upcoming football season. Enjoy.
