Plain Dog Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Prepare the Meat Mixture

   In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork and beef. Add the water, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and sugar. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

2. 2

   Stuff the Sausage Casings

   Soak the casings in water for at least 30 minutes to soften. Rinse the casings under cold water. Using a sausage stuffer, fill the casings with the meat mixture, being careful not to overstuff. Twist the sausages into desired lengths.

3. 3

   Cook the Hot Dogs

   Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the sausages and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for about 15-20 minutes until they are fully cooked through. Alternatively, grill the sausages on medium heat for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally.

4. 4

   Serve

   Remove the hot dogs from the pot or grill. Let them rest for a few minutes before serving. Serve plain or with preferred condiments.
