Chicago hot dog chain Portillo’s is celebrating America’s 250th anniversary with a new flavor-packed frank.
The Chardiniera Dog, available for a limited time starting Tuesday, is the product of a new partnership between Portillo and Vienna Beef.
What’s in Portillo’s new Chardiniera Dog?
The new chargrilled beef hot dogs are infused with giardiniera and provolone cheeses, giving them a “medium-cooked, rich cheesiness and smoky charred finish,” Portillo said.
It can be served in a variety of ways, including Maxwell style, topped with yellow mustard and grilled onions.
It can also be served classic Chicago style, topped with mustard, relish, onions, tomatoes, celery salt, sport peppers, and pickles.
Portillo fans can also order the Chardiniera dog plain or with their favorite toppings.
How much does a Chardiniella dog cost?
Prices for new dogs vary by location.
Prices at Chicago stores range between $5.49 and $5.59, according to information posted online.
