That's funny Shani, I made hotdogs in mine for the first time last week. I was at the grocery looking for pepper rings when I notice right in front of my face, sport peppers and neon green pickle relish. I've never had a Chicago dog before but when DH goes through O'hare for work, he gets them and loves 'em.
I was so excited to be able to make them at home for him that I went online and looked up all the specifics. Seems they are commonly boiled or steamed so of course I went with steamed. They turned out fantastic but I was mostly floored by finally figuring out how to steam the buns without them turning to mush. You turn them upside down and place them over the dogs for the last two minutes of steaming. Perfect! No more microwaved buns that turn to rubber in 30 secs for me! 
Hope yours turned out good too.
