"Sport peppers"? "Neon relish"?

You never had a Chi-dog!? Oh man, you have my sympathy. First, educate
yourself:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicago-style_hot_dog

Second, find a place:

http://www.viennabeef.com/dogfinder/

Not completely accurate. There's also Chicago's Metropolitan Deli in
Pleasanton, CA. There has to be more CA.

I've never had a hot dog in Chicago, but know the exact location of the
closest chi-dog dispenser (92 miles).

I've just never heard the funny name "sport peppers" for hot peppers.

And "neon relish" turns out to be pickle relish.

I'll bet these two names were dreamed up by some Brit in Chicagoan's
clothing; they have silly nicknames for lots of things.

Both the sport peppers and relish have distinct flavors. I've tried
many different bottled peppers and none taste like sports do. The
flavor blend of the sports and the sweet relish is what makes the dogs
unique.

Exactly. Sure, you could sub other stuff. The relish is not that great
tasting, IMO, but it's good and it's damned sure neon green. Never looked
to see if it glows in the dark. The peppers are unique, but any small hot
pepper would do. I use pepperocinis. But, those dogs are hard to beat.

Vienna beef dogs are by far and away the best dog I've ever tasted.
Nathan's? Yawn. Hebrew National? ...ehh. Problem is, getting 'em anywhere
except a chi-dog stand or mail order, can't get 'em, and mail order is
very pricey. Better to find a vendor.

Pepperoncini's are similar, but not identical. I think they're
sweeter.

It is very odd you can't get the fixins outside Chicago. We get
everything including the S.Rosin buns at any grocery store. Even
Costco sells the stuff.

Wow! Lucky you. We got zip in CA. I haven't looked in the big stores in
Denver. Maybe I can get Sky to send me a care package.

I've seen a Chicago dog on TV but ain't never ate one and I WAS there once,
in 1985.

I don't think I ate mustard OR onions OR pickles then.

I probably committed a misdemeanor for not eating one. I also missed the
Italian beef sandwich. That's probably a felony?!? And dammit, I would've
eaten a whole deep dish pizza by myself (!!!) if I'd only known! F**k my
bosses!!! Dammit!!! We had to eat at fancy places like "The Bakery," iirc.
The BUMS!!!

If only I had family in Chicago, I'd be back.

And Colorado nb, I've been all over Colorado. Ski'd Aspen. Met up and dated
a gorgeous 10-year-old girl who lived there for two days on the slopes
(same aged, BTW!).

Saw BU on a mountain top in Boulder along a straight-away.

I liked Aspen best. My girl!!! I should've asked her to marry me on the
chairlift!!! Dammit!!!

After that Denver held NO attraction!

The shipping is killer on that kind of stuff. We send care packages
to one of the girls up in Seattle and sometimes it seems we'd be
better off just putting money in her account.

Yeah, but in this case (no pun intended), they got it right. After a
chi-dog, all others are just lame.

The only useful purpose Chicagoans serve is to **** off New Yorkers. We
need them to devise a "Chicago-style bagel" to complete the trifecta.

There's a hotdog place in St. Louis, Woofies, that is blessed by some
of the Chicago transplants at work. I never eat that craptastic
Chicago-style thing, but a nice coney island or a dog with kraut and
mustard hits the spot.

Now there's a real smart comment.

Can't do it because we have different water. But nice troll. And you
have ME killfiled? LOL

>There's a hotdog place in St. Louis, Woofies, that is blessed by some

I'll remember that the next time I'm down there. Sounds like a good
place!

>I never eat that craptastic Chicago-style thing,


Coming from someone who lives in the city that makes pizza with
provel, your judgement seems rather off.

>but a nice coney island or a dog with kraut and mustard hits the spot.


Those are good too.

I just recently learned the celery salt addition came from the German
population. I'm not a big salt nut so I use a pinch of celery seed on
mine.

Dammit. I was going to try that on a test hot dog, today, and I forgot.

Next time. (One or the other; I have both forms.)

Apparently to get the full monty, you have to request celery salt on
the "Woofie dog".
