Instructions

    • 1

      Add a couple of tablespoons of oil to a skillet. Heat slightly, and then add two all-beef hot dogs to the oil. Keep a close watch, and move the skillet around so that neither of the hot dogs burns. Turn the hot dogs over to cook all sides of the skin.

      Remove the skillet from the heat and set aside.

    • 3

      Open one of the hot dog buns. Place slices of tomato and pickles on each side of the bun. These vegetables make the crunch that is so wonderful on a Chicago hot dog.

    • 4

      Place the hot dog in the middle of all of this. Top with yellow mustard, sweet relish, chopped onions and peppers. Some people add a dash of celery salt, but this is something that differs with tastes.

    • 5

      Repeat Steps 3 and 4 to make the other hot dog. Put both on one plate.

    • 6

      Grab a handful of chips and a cold drink. Now, you are ready to enjoy a delicacy that many people crave. These homemade Chicago hot dogs will taste as good as those at Fluky's.
