Hot Dogs on the Grill

If I’m going to eat a hot dog - grilling it is the only way to go, as far as I’m concerned. I use Ballpark hotdogs because I love the way they plump up.

Don’t use high heat! You’ll burn the outside before the hot dogs get cooked. Use a lower heat and turn often. I like to make certain every part of the hot dog gets barbecued.

The - once that dog has opened up - I take a sliver of Velvetta cheese and slide it into the open area of the hot dog and let it melt. Absolutely delicious!

Here’s a bonus. My grandson is three years old - he helps me grill the dogs. The fir is not high and there is no grease flareups like you get with burgers and other meats. He loves it and gets a real sense of accomplishment. And it’s just one more thing he and I do together.
