Now there's nothing like a good wiener with sauerkraut!
Put junk on a hot dog? Yes. they are literally made from garbage. Cover up that pink organ slime.
But never on a frankfurter.
Lightly griddled bun, buttered on the inside, lightly griddled frank with some diagonal cut gills to prevent Peyronie's
Them maybe a half tsp of Maille Dijon - no, not the the faux french counterfeit Produit au Canada.
If not on a quest for the fabled Argent Chalice, I am absolutely fine with Hebrew National Kosher tube steak.

Musturd is a great way to ruin a hot dog.

They make good sausage locally but it’s too big for buns.
So, I grill them - cut them smaller - lay on paper towels/foil - and put out hot dog condiments for choice …

Ketchup is good on my old bachelor comfort chow down Hotog Hash recipe.
You make skillet potato hash with cut up hot dogs.
Drizzle some good S.S. Pierce ketchup over top of the pile of hash.
YUMMY!

I make that as a special treat. On the grill I heat the peppers and onions in tin foil before grilling the sausages. A great sandwich.
Up here in Boston at Fenway Park. Sausage subs (with sauteed onions and peppers) are the staple food at the Ballpark.Not a hot dog, but these look delicious. Onions on there for GON.
Up here it's spicy mustard and meat sauce.
Yup! I use mustard as a binder for the rub, on my baby back ribs also. Meathead (Google him) claims that mustard on ribs doesn't give any flavor, and if you like mustard flavor on your ribs, you should add ground mustard to the rub. But my wife and I both can taste the difference when I use mustard as the binder.
Meat sauce? I'm not sure what that is. Please explain.
I think that is NY lingo for chili made with ground beef. I know of some upstate Italian restaurants that refer to tomato based spaghetti sauce as "gravy".

Mustard & ketchup.
If only one condiment, mustard.
Nobody puts just ketchup on a hot dog

BLASPHEMY!
We have a locally famous hotdog stand here. The first time I went I asked for ketchup when they were putting on condiments.
The response was "we don't do that". And they did not do that.

A recent article on this subject.
“During the depression, going back to Upton Sinclair and the old Chicago stockyards, actually when it was made, some of the meats weren’t always good,” Chiappetti said. “So they actually used ketchup on it to cover up, the flavor of bad meat. So it used to be prideful, that we don’t serve ketchup. Meaning our hotdogs were better than everyone else’s."

Also from the interview with the restaurant owner,
"His restaurant in the Loop often attracts tourists, and many, who request ketchup on their Chicago dog.
“Of course we have to say no!” Chiappetti said. “We say ages 8 and under, you can have ketchup, but we try not to serve it.”
So maybe ask for ketchup, only if it’s for the kids. Otherwise, respect the reason that here in Chicago we skip the sweet red sauce.
“People didn’t want to cover it up and mask the true flavors. And how great is that? What a great premise to eating. Give me the natural, the best, don’t cover things up in sugar. I think the hotdog story is a lot of what the culinary story is in Chicago," Chiappetti said."
So it's official, at least in Chicagoland. So remember fellow BITOG people, including @GON, when in Chicago, order your hotdog sans ketchup. To do otherwise may be a major faux pas.
