Where's the difference? Meat is meat. Why is one part of the animal somehow grosser than the rest of the animal? This vegetarian doesn't get it. Parts is parts.

and even some vegetation, where certain parts are safe and edible and others are not.

I don't think being a vegetarian somehow means you eat all and any part of all or any part of the flora.

I live splitting them open, stuffing them with cheese to melt and then adding wee bit of Dijon mustard and sweet relish. Yummy.

Tue May 8, 2012, 08:49 PM

.
.
.
is a hot dog wrapped in mesquite-smoked bacon then cooked on a grill or on a griddle,
then topped with freshly chopped tomatoes, onions, shredded yellow or cotijo cheese,
tomatillo salsa or red chili sauce, pinto beans, mayonnaise, ketchup and/or mustard,
and served on bread and often with a fresh-roasted chili. It originated in Hermosillo,
the capital of Sonora.
.
Yes, you purists who can't see KETCHUP on a dog (I sometimes like it for variety),
the Sonoran hot dog pretty much MANDATES MAYO!!!
.
.
.
The fresh-roasted chili is a real plus, taking a big ol' bite out of it as you make progress
on the dog(s).

Most Californian supermarket employees have never heard of "sport peppers" or "neon relish." So after making substitutions (pepperoncini for the sport peppers, and whatever relish I'm in the mood for to replace the "neon green&quot , I do enjoy the OCCASIONAL "Chicago Dog" (and I've never been to Chicago for the real deal). You also can't find poppyseed buns here.



http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/food-network-kitchens/chicago-dogs-recipe/index.html

Directions

Serve boiled hot dogs on poppy-seed buns with dill pickle and cucumber spears, sliced tomatoes, sweet pickle relish, pickled peppers, diced onion and yellow mustard. Sprinkle with celery salt.

I mist them with a little bit of water and sprinkle on some poppy seeds. The neon relish is just standard sweet pickle relish with some green food dye in it. One can buy it on Amazon.com or from Vienna Beef, if one insists on the neon green sort.
