Baltimore-Style Hot Dog

This hot dog variety consists of a kosher beef sausage that is fried with bologna slices until golden brown and slightly crispy. The sausage is then wrapped in bologna and placed in a split bread bun with a dill pickle spear. The whole dish is additionally topped with a generous squirt of yellow mustard. Although the history of Baltimore-style hot dog is quite murky, some believe that it was invented during the Great Depression, when people added bologna slices to the hot dog in order to make it a fuller, heartier meal.
