Ingredients

  • 4 piece All-beef hot dogs (or your preferred type)
  • 4 piece Hot dog buns
  • to taste to taste Ketchup
  • to taste to taste Yellow mustard
  • to taste to taste Sweet relish
  • optional to taste Onion, finely chopped

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Preheat your grill to medium heat (about 350-400°F / 175-200°C). If you don't have a grill, you can use a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat on the stovetop.

    Time: 5 min
  2. 2.

    Place the hot dogs directly on the grill grates. Grill for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are heated through and have nice grill marks on all sides. If using a skillet, cook for 5-8 minutes, turning frequently, until browned.

    Time: 7 min
  3. 3.

    During the last minute of cooking, lightly toast the hot dog buns on the grill or in the skillet until slightly golden and warm. This adds a nice texture and keeps them from getting soggy.

    Time: 1 min
  4. 4.

    Carefully remove the hot dogs and buns from the heat. Place each hot dog into a toasted bun.

    Time: 1 min
  5. 5.

    Serve immediately with your favorite toppings like ketchup, mustard, relish, and chopped onions.

    Time: 1 min

Tips

  • 💡For extra flavor, try buttering the inside of your buns before toasting them on the grill or in a pan.
  • 💡Don't overcrowd your grill or pan; cook hot dogs in batches if necessary to ensure even cooking and browning.
  • 💡Experiment with different toppings! Chili, cheese, sauerkraut, jalapeños, or bacon bits can elevate your hot dog experience.
