I have created the perfect Hot Dog!!!

Lol at Chicagoans who put 5,000 condiments on top of their hot dogs, completely blocking out the taste of the beef, turning the supposed hot dog into a salad/sandwich/whateverbutitaintahotdog, but getting all antsy over putting a little ketchup on the hot dog.

Real hot dogs have 1, 2, or perhaps 3 condiments max before it becomes something else. Ketchup is fine, as long as the hot dogs aren't drenched with it.
Don't get me wrong, the Chicago stuff isn't bad, but they aren't hot dogs. You know you got a problem when you can't carry the damn thing in your hand without it being a hazard to your clothes.
You might as well chop all that crap up and serve it in a bowl and call it something else.

That looks terrible. If I wanted a damn salad, I'd order one. Don't need veggies on my mystery meat.

One of the things that makes it perfect is the vienna beef jumbo dog. Very flavorful meat that can hold its own against all the fixins.

A good chili cheese dog is still the best. I've never had a chicago style dog, but it looks like way too much crap... who the hell wants a tomato slice with their hotdog?

Man, I just had lunch, and already again I'm hungry!

That meets all criteria that can be told from a photo,
poppy seed bun, mustard, onion, sweet pickle relish, dill pickle spear, tomato slices, pickled sport pepper.

I'm hoping they sprinkled on some celery salt and that it's 100% all beef (and natural casing for extra points!)

yep, all of the above. Portillo's jumbo with everything.
 
I'll have to agree with the Chicago style dog being the perfect hot dog. There's a place in the city called "Hot Doug's" that does all sorts of specialty dogs along side the traditional ones. On weekends they serve fries that are fried in duck fat. A line is always out the door. Here's an example of one of their specialty dogs.

Yummy!
The nearest Portillo's to where I work is all the way in Arlington Heights, I'm in Deerfield .... it's a good 6-7 miles .... a bit too far to hit for lunch on a regular basis because traffic in the NW burbs sucks ass. Fortunatly, there's a couple of good chicago style dog joints just 2-3 miles from here, but Portillo's is soooo yummy.
 
Okay, there is a place called "Crif Dog" in NYC...which all of you should check out right this second. Their menu is AMAZING.
