Lou,

Actually I don't think Texas has rules like Chicago and New York do. We do
our own thing in the Lone Star State <g>.

Very commonly though the Chili dog rules. I like a little bit of catsup
(isn't that a Chicago no-no?), chili (without beans), and lots of cheese and
raw onions.

We have so many rules for chili, chicken fried steak, BBQ, etc. that maybe
we just have no more room for rules about hot dogs.

I have a DIL however who puts together a hot dog without the hot dog... just
the fixings!
