Our summer of fun is rapidly coming to an end. School is or will be starting soon, the temperatures are lowering, and Labor Day are all upon us. We’ve had a lot of fun this summer so bidding farewell to this summer won’t be easy. But this Labor Day we’ll be celebrating with a party to celebrate the summer gone by and the beginning of fall just around the corner.
With so much going on in our family’s lives right now a simple and relaxing party is definitely key. We’re going to be eating delicious food but food that will cater to a variety of tastes so everyone’s satisfied without spending hours slaving away in the kitchen. Because who really wants to turn on the oven when it’s still in the 90s out? Certainly not me.
Our family will be serving up delicious Hebrew National Hot Dogs or rather Chicago Dogs. My husband recently introduced me to this recipe and while I really like chili dogs or even taco dogs, I was amazed at how good a Chicago Dogs really are It’s such an unlikely combination of flavors to me but they all go together really well and transform your meal beyond a typical hot dog into something even better.

Kiersten @ OMV says
August 28, 2013 at 3:55 pmI grew up in Chicago and I’ve never had a Chicago-style hot dog. Because when I still ate hot dogs, I liked them plain. 🙂 What a travesty, huh?!

August 30, 2013 at 11:19 amI”m a Chicago girl but I only ever tried a Chicago dog once, last summer as sort of a bet. It wasn’t too bad actually considering I usually have my dog with ONLY KETCHUP!
Deb Bonine says
August 31, 2013 at 2:29 amThat looks yummy! Wouldn’t mind trying a Chicago dog-love tomatoes and a dash of celery salt sounds tasty. Can’t beat a good quality “dog” on the grill in the summertime!

Anne says
September 1, 2013 at 6:56 amI am so boring with my hotdogs, I just add mustard! I am going to have to try Chicago hotdogs and switch things up a little
Dianna @ oyveyaday says
September 1, 2013 at 7:53 amI love Hebrew National… and I love them Chicago style. The only thing you are missing is the steamed poppy seed bun… but those aren’t that easy to find. 😀
Thanks for the recipe!
