Hot Dog Ingredients
Method
Hot Dog Preparation
Prepare the Meat Mixture
In a large bowl, combine ground beef and ground pork. Add salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Mix until well combined.
Prepare the Casings
Rinse the casings thoroughly under cold water. Soak them in water for about 30 minutes to soften.
Stuff the Casings
Using a sausage stuffer, fill the casings with the meat mixture, being careful not to overstuff. Tie off the ends securely.
Cook the Hot Dogs
Boil the stuffed hot dogs in a pot of water for about 20 minutes or until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
Grill (optional)
For additional flavor, you can grill the hot dogs for about 5 minutes after boiling.
