@lrbaseball15 Is there such a thing as a " Hotdog Expert " ??? LOL

For fuck sake, it's a sausage on a finger roll! By the way.......THE GERMANS INVENTED IT......as they did the hamburger! Sorry about that.

You have maybe refined it as your own idea but it is certainly not an american invention, just an americanism.

A bit like porn....LOL

Cucumber slices on a "traditional Chicago dog"? Are you kidding? Don't ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ask for ketchup OR cucumbers on a Chicago dog!!!!! hahahahahahahahaha

[lrbaseball15]

Here's the bottom line. Any hot dog is "Chicago style" as long as ketchup is not a condiment. Anyone care to disagree? Even the "experts" from Chicago don't agree on what makes a true Chicaog dog. LOLLOLLOLLOL

[lrbaseball15]

Wait a minute!!!!!! I thought a TRUE Chicago hot dog had to be on a poppy seed bun??? And when did cucumbers become a condiment??? That's the thing about a Chicago dog........anything is OK but ketchup. How about some spinach, collard greens, mustard greens, chopped lettuce, and jalapeno peppers??? hahahahaha

>not using wursts

>not using purely Germanic ingredients with your sausages

Chicago just likes to ruin everything they touch, eh?

nitrates make nitrites when they are heated to 400c.. nitrites are not added.... and trust me there are nitrates in those and any hotdogs.

If it's not a Vienna hot dog, it's not a Chicago hot dog.
