THE OFFICIAL ASSEMBLY OF A
TRADITIONAL CINCINNATI-STYLE HOT DOG
Prep Time: 30 Minutes
Yields: 6–8 Servings
Comment:
The Cincinnati-Style is also served as a “Cheese Coney.” The toppings are just as important as the order they are applied to the hot dog. The goal is to evenly distribute the toppings so you get a taste of each ingredient with every bite. Remember, dress the dog and not the bun!

1 package hot dogs
1 package hot dog buns
¼ cup yellow mustard
¼ cup chili
¼ cup shredded mild Cheddar cheese
¼ cup chopped onion

Start out by placing your heated hot dog on the bun and add the toppings in the following order:
- Yellow mustard - Squirt the mustard directly on the dog from one end to the other.
- Chili - Place a generous amount of chili on top of the dog.
- Shredded mild Cheddar cheese – Add a generous amount of cheese.
- Fresh chopped onions - Place onions on top of the dog. The amount depends on your personal taste.
