As you may have already read, it is Super Bowl week here at Slashfood and Sarah and I are comparing cuisines between the two super cities, Chicago and Indianapolis. I'm going to ask everyone to contain their shock and amazement that I chose Chicago style hot dogs as my initial nod to the food of Chi-town. Though it may appear like I'm taking the easy way out, I was a little afraid of mass protest if I didn't feature these little gems first. Also, Sarah is going to have her work cut out for her as it is, so it's probably better that I start off slow.
A true Chicago style dog contains distinct ingredients and is dressed in a very specific order. Depending on who you ask, the hot dog wieners can be boiled, steamed, or grilled, but one thing seems to be agreed upon almost universally - do not put ketchup on it. Ever.
