Chicago-Style Hot Dog

An all-beef Vienna frank in a poppy seed bun 'dragged through the garden' — mustard, neon-green relish, onion, tomato wedges, pickle spear, sport peppers, celery salt. Never ketchup. Born of the Depression-era 'Depression Sandwich,' it's the city's immigrant history in one bun.

Try it at: Portillo's or any stand with a yellow-and-blue Vienna Beef sign
