Championship Hot Dogs

Submitted by Nancy G.

"A recipe from the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council that makes plain old hot dogs special."

 

• Ready In: 35mins
• Ingredients: 7
• Serves: 8

ingredients

• 8 slices bacon
• 12 ounces beer
• 8 hot dogs
• 8 hot dog buns, split
• 1⁄2 cup spicy brown mustard
• 1⁄2 cup diced sweet onion
• 1⁄2 cup sliced bell peppers, diced or 1/2 cup sweet pepper, strips diced

directions

1. Cook bacon over medium-low heat until crispy. Drain on clean paper towels. Crumble cooked bacon.
2. Bring beer to a boil in an 8- to 10-inch skillet (large enough to hold hot dogs in a single layer). Add hot dogs to boiling beer. Immediately reduce heat and simmer hot dogs for about 4 to 5 minutes or until an internal temperature of 160 degrees F is reached.
3. Place hot dogs in buns and top with 1 tablespoon each of mustard, onions, peppers and bacon.

I was too tired to cook and this fit the bill perfectly for dh. He would not touch the peppers but loved the recipe without. Thanks for a great way to make dogs!

Great Hot dog. I used small cheese buns so the wiener stuck out at both ends. Boiling the wiener in beer sure enhances the flavor. Enjoyed my Saturday Night Dogs - Thanks Luvs2Cook for posting
