How to build a Chicago Style Hot Dog (Chicago Hot Dog Recipe)

i make them with regular pickel relish( sweet or dill) mustard and jelapino slices and tomato slices with celery salt YUM

If yer ever in Chicagoland, make sure to visit a Portillo's restaurant. A lot of great choices including the best Chicago style hot dogs you've ever had.

You could also check out an actual Vienna Beef restaurant. Those are dotted all around Chicago.

If pizza sounds good, Chicago style deep dish pizza is to rave about. I prefer Lou Malnati's near Midway Aiport on Cicero. Giordano's is really good, too.

Can't get much better than great Chicago food and watching our beloved Cubbies.

Don't know where you get the idea that you need poppy seeds. Or the neon relish. I grew up on depression dogs. No tomatoes or dill pickle. And they don't put it together like you did. A line of mustard. A line of relish opposite. Then the onions, topped by the peppers. As long as you've got quality ingredients, you can do it.
Me, I use chipolte mustard and slivers of habanero with a quality relish. ( undyed)

I can get those online. But here in Maine we get Kayem dogs made in Massachusetts. I get the pork dogs with the natural casing and they are good.

wow. I love, love Chicago Dogs. Ty. A must try

I’m glad too see you didn’t skimp on these dogs the way you did the Coney Island hotdog sauce.

I live in Cleveland OH and we have Stadium Ballpark mustard which is bit spicy. Rus, have you ever tried Stadium Ballpark mustard?

My hat’s off to you, good sir! True to its origin down to the radioactive-green relish! Thank you!

Chicago dogs are the best way to enjoy a proper hot dog.

Looks delicious. 🌭🌭

that's a true flavor party for your taste buds right there

You really can't find Celery salt in Mississippi? I'm in Alabama and it's in EVERY store here. Now poppy seed buns, no. Vienna hot dogs, no. But to buy them from Vienna and have them shipped is insane$. Sport peppers are readily available everywhere. How much did it cost you- per dog- to make these? Sabrett hot dogs are pretty close and sold at Publix. Much cheaper option, and damn near the same. I lived near Chicago for 27 years and grew up eating Portillos. My substitutions are good enough and won't cost too much

I would take the tomatoes and pickle off.

You forgot the cucumber

Throw some ketchup on that bad boy!

So I guess Chicago has better women the Mafia is more there , better hot dogs better baseball better pizza

Nice 💪💪💪

If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough.

Yep, nothing like a Chicago style hot dog. Bet you paid a pretty penny for all that Vienna Beef brand products. The peppers were the only thing worth buying. I grew up on depression dogs. No tomatoes, no dill pickle spear. And sesame seeds, overated.

Heck i just walk 3 blocks to Jays Beef and grab me 2 with fires!

Chicago born and raised here. Great job. You did them right. I have seen dozens of “Chicago Dog” videos and most of them miss one or two important ingredients. For me I have to have a steamed bun, vienna dog, neon relish and celery salt. Without them it’s just a hot dog. You nailed it. I hope your wife enjoyed them too. :)

brother, that looks AMAZING! My mouth is watering and I gotta have one or two!
