Elevate classic hot dogs with melty cheese, baked to perfection for a crispy finish. Top with onions, relish for extra flavor.
Ingredients:
  • For the hot dogs:
  • 6 all-beef hot dogs
  • 6 hot dogs buns, top cut
  • 3/4 to 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 white onion, diced
  • Sweet pickle relish
  • Ketchup
  • For the Dad Add - quick giardiniera:
  • 1/2 cup diced dill pickles
  • 1/2 cup diced spicy pickled cauliflower
  • 1/4 cup diced banana peppers
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 400°F for the perfect cooking temperature.
  • Sear the hot dogs in a medium skillet over medium heat until they blister on all sides, about 4 to 5 minutes. Avoid overcooking.
  • Create hot dog masterpieces by nestling the seared hot dogs in top cut hot dog buns in a large baking dish. Sprinkle generously with grated cheese and diced white onion for a flavor explosion!
  • Cook the hot dogs in the oven for around 6 minutes, until the cheese is gooey, the buns are crispy, and the onions are tender with a slight crunch.
  • To serve, take the hot dogs out of the oven and add your favorite toppings like ketchup, relish, or the Dad's giardiniera. Pair the hot dogs with a side of steamed broccoli. Keep in mind that leftovers do not keep well, so prepare only what you plan to enjoy in one sitting!
