Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Hot Dogs

    In a medium saucepan, bring water to a boil. Place the hot dog sausages in the boiling water and cook for about 5-7 minutes until heated through. Alternatively, you can grill them over medium heat for about 5 minutes, turning occasionally.

  2. 2

    Warm the Buns

    While the sausages are cooking, you can warm the hot dog buns. This can be done by placing them in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes or by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving them for about 20 seconds.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Assemble the Hot Dogs

    Once the hot dogs are cooked and the buns are warmed, place each hot dog sausage into a bun. Ensure that the sausage is positioned in the center of the bun for balanced toppings.

  2. 4

    Add Toppings

    Top each hot dog with mustard, ketchup, relish, chopped onions, and sauerkraut as desired. If you like cheese, sprinkle some shredded cheese on top as well.
