Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces hot dogs
- 8 pieces hot dog buns
- 1 cup barbecue sauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 0.25 cup yellow mustard
- 0.25 cup ketchup
- 0.5 cup diced onions
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Brush the hot dogs with olive oil to prevent sticking to the grill and ensure even cooking.
Place the hot dogs on the grill and cook, turning occasionally, for about 6-8 minutes or until heated through and slightly charred.
While the hot dogs are grilling, warm the barbecue sauce in a small saucepan over low heat until slightly thickened and glossy, about 2-3 minutes.
Brush the hot dogs with warmed barbecue sauce during the last 2 minutes of grilling, coating them generously.
Melt the butter in a small skillet or microwave and lightly brush the insides of the hot dog buns. Toast the buns on the grill for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Assemble the hot dogs by placing each grilled hot dog into a toasted bun.
Top with additional barbecue sauce, yellow mustard, and ketchup if desired.
Sprinkle with diced onions and shredded cheddar cheese for added flavor and a nice crunch.
Serve the barbecue hot dogs immediately, alongside chips, salad, or your favorite summer sides.
