I just had a couple of Chicago-style dogs for lunch. You can have your Coney Island crappy hot dogs (yes, you know what I mean Erica, if you are out there). I'll take a red hot any time: an all beef dog, neon green relish, onion, tomato, pickle, sport peppers, and celery salt.
I would probably choose thin crust NY pizza over Chicago deep dish, But when in old Chicago I try to get a good hot dog or a hot Italian beef.
It is a long day and my head still hurts. But my belly is full of good food.
We're cheap around here. We like hot dogs with catsup. Or with chili. No red hots.
ReplyDeleteAnd we are agnostic regarding thin crust or Chicago Style, too. Either works.
I like deep dish too. The wife, not so much. therefore We mostly eat thin.
ReplyDeleteI have a rule in my home that catsup on a hot-dog will not be allowed by anyone over the age of 6. It is frikkin etched in high carbon steel and strictly enforced. And I ain't hardly B/S ing
ReplyDeleteAll Beef or Chicken and Turkey Dogs?
ReplyDeleteMustard and onions
Yikes! Condiment Nazis!!!
ReplyDeleteFirst they came for the celery salts, and I did not speak out—
Because I did not use celery salt.
Then they came for the sport peppers, and I did not speak out—
Because I did not use sport peppers, (and do really know what the #^*% a "sport" pepper is).
Then they came for the neon green relish, and I did not speak out—
Because I did not use neon green relish.
Then they came for the ketchup and I shot them with the Ruger my father-in-law brought home from the war.
