Ingredients
  

  • 6 All beef hot dogs
  • 6 Poppy seed buns
  • 2 Tomatoes cut into half moons
  • 1 White onion diced
  • 12 Sport peppers
  • 6 Dill pickle spears
  • Yellow mustard
  • Bright green relish
  • Celery salt

Instructions
 

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Lower the heat to a simmer, add the hot dogs and cook for 10 minutes or until heated through. Alternatively, you can steam them in a steamer basket over boiling water until heated through.
  • Wrap the buns in a damp paper towel and microwave at 15 second intervals until warm and soft, but not too hot; about 30-45 seconds total.
  • Place the hot dogs in the buns and top each with yellow mustard, green relish, chopped onion, two tomato half moons, a dill pickle spear, two sport peppers, and a sprinkle of celery salt.
  • Resist the urge to reach for the ketchup. Enjoy!
