It's become an annual March Madness tradition at CBS Chicago, pitting our city's best eateries in direct competition in a foodie bracket challenge. We've done pizza, we've done Italian beef. Now, we're getting snappy.
We're looking for Chicago's Top Dog, and we need your help. We took your nominations for the Chicago institution serving up the most delicious hot dogs, and arrived at the following brackets!
Join us every day over the coming weeks as we fire up a new poll to see which dog reigns supreme!
