Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the hot dogs

    In a medium saucepan, bring water to a boil. Add the beef hot dogs and allow them to simmer for about 5-7 minutes until heated through.

  2. 2

    Prepare the buns

    While the hot dogs are cooking, lightly toast the buns on a skillet or grill until golden brown. This enhances the flavor and adds a nice texture.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Assemble the Big Weener

    Once the hot dogs are heated and buns are toasted, place each hot dog inside a bun. Top with shredded cheddar cheese, pickled jalapeños, and your desired amount of mustard and ketchup.

  2. 4

    Add garnish

    Sprinkle chopped onions and fresh cilantro on top of the assembled hot dogs for added flavor and texture.
