What techniques do you use for making hot dogs?

[@SebastianRodriguez-bs4wh]

I literally eat them straight out of the bag

[@CertifiedMailSignatureRequired]

i avoid watching these robo videos !

[@sexygeek8996]

Foreman grill

[@cjwars2828]

can yall do ovewn cooked ones All fancey like

[@melissacooper8724]

I put my hot dogs in the veggie steamer. I put a little water at the bottom, put the basket with the hot dogs on top, then let them steam for several minutes.

[@LeedleLee457]

People saying you shouldn't boil at all. You guys do realize that 99% of hotdogs you buy at restaurants, stores, baseball games, etc are ALL BOILED 🤦‍♂🤦‍♂

[@matttorma6787]

Boiled hot dogs are delicious you just have to know what you’re doing. Season the water with boullion, then after the water is boiling, reduce the heat.

[@dragoon260]

This! THIS RIGHT HERE.

[@melanier7309]

That's a lot of sodium. Some people can't handle that.

[@markfischer3626]

I never cook hot dogs in water. My parents cooked them that way. Instead I cook all beef hot dogs in a toaster oven. I like them well done. Fat also drips out. I like then dark on the outside, almost burnt.

[@FlightX101]

yes. a few degrees away from burnt is way to go. Gives it that classic outdoor BBQ taste and crunch

[@hellhound1389]

My family calls them Freddy Kruegers and my grandfather loves them like that. But since I use kosher dogs they don't have the fillers and organ meat so they don't burn enough for him

[@markfischer3626]

@@hellhound1389 My exclusive choice is Hebrew National. There are things very foolish people do to food out of sheer ignorance. You don't put mustard and mayonnaise on an Italian sub. You don't put pineapple, broccoli and the kitchen sink on pizza, even what passes for pizza in most places outside the New York City metro and Chicago areas. And you don't put ketchup and most other things people do on hot dogs. Deli mustard, sauerkraut, that's it. In Philadelphia it's mustard and onions.

[@hellhound1389]

@@markfischer3626 on my dogs, burger, and pork tenderloin sandwich I go German style (mustard, onions, pickles/relish). I put marinara and oil'n'vinegar on my Italian sub. But where I differ is pineapple on pizza. It has to be pineapple packed in juice not syrup (it leaves a horrible after taste that turns people off), I get the combination of pepperoni, pineapple, and black olives plus sometimes jalapeno. It's a mind blowing combo

[@markfischer3626]

@@hellhound1389 IMO NYC Italian restaurant pizza and non chain affiliate small business pizzerias make my favorite pizzas. They need nothing added except a little salt, some garlic powder, and somepepper flakes. The only topping for me which is optional is pepperoni. To each his own I suppose. Funny how passionate people can get over this.

[@robojoe58]

Boiling them tones down the salt content, just take them out at about 4 minutes and char in your favorite way: grill, cast iron pan, wood fire, etc...

[@marshapelo9830]

I like to boil hot dogs until they plump up to double size.

[@jayschwartz3203]

I always boil frankfurters, even before I barbeque them , sometimes I leave them longer than 10 minutes, and I've never experienced the effect that this article stated.

[@Carl_McMelvin]

It needs to be a rolling boil for that quick, and probably longer than ten minutes. At just high temps it’ll still happen but longer. I’ve had it happen once when I forgot I had them on the stove.

[@jrbosley]

*Or just not put them in boiling water* . Rather, 1/4 inch of water in sauce pan, with 1st round of hot dogs, cover - yes cover - and bring to steaming, adjust heat to maintain steam-state, ready when dogs are steamy and tender ... renew hot dogs into process as required for full consumptive rounds.

[@justinjakeashton]

Yeah, who the hell ever thought that boiling hotdogs is a good idea? Cook spiced meat in water and it comes out tasteless. Who would've thought?

[@ktro007]

So the taste and texture is why 🤣 I thought it was going to say it will go bad and you could get sick lol. Pretty sure we all know this

[@anarchyangelo]

Whoever doesn't know this deserves the tasteless mush they're stuck with

[@morrismonet3554]

[@robertcostello4921]

The street vendors would save half the used water to use the next day to flavor the new hotdogs.gave them more flavor faster. official SABRETT hotdog eater.

Boiled hotdogs is fine sometimes

[@acardenasjr1340]

It's perfectly fine to boil Hot Dogs. Most people get creative with their water seasoning, lemons, onions and spices.

[@oldguyreal9681]

'Air fryer,' microwave both work. It's a hot dog, taste will be determined by the condiments.

[@Carl_McMelvin]

Uh, no. It will be determined by how you cook it. 😂😂😂 And a microwaved one is by FAR the worst. A microwave turns them into rubber.

[@Misajoejoe1]

I. boil hotdogs so it wont be so salty. Then I dump the water and dry fry hotdog.

[@monkeyguy80]

I personally don't mind & likes to boiled sausages/hotdogs and ate this way cos it's easier to cooked when I'm hungry!

[@darcyjorgensen5808]

Microwave

[@chaddentandt9868]

The little that I eat hot dogs, grilled is preffered. Looks and tastes better.

[@ericlittle162]

This is why I only cook them and cast iron skillets or over a grill. Seals all the juices and yumminess inside also chars it carbon is good for you.

[@deniselyons6006]

You got it boiling boil on the sort out of them they too salty to time boil it and then put them on the grill

[@76carmel]

That’s why I grill my 🌭 hot dogs.

[@V4VideoGamer]

Imagine eating super processed meat (hot dogs) and worrying if they get slightly plump from water.

[@jandreid1056]

my parents would cook hotdogs by boiling a centimeter or two of water and add the hotdogs, let the water evaporate, and add oil to fry the hotdogs.

[@hellhound1389]

I reversed that method. I first fry them to add color and develop flavor then add water halfway up the dogs and lower to simmer to allow the rest of the dog to come to temp. While they simmer I put a baking rack on top to steam the buns

[@jandreid1056]

@@hellhound1389 my parents did the waterboiling first because it's the fastest way to defrost the hotdogs straight from the freezer. No need to microwaved or heat them in the oven.

[@hellhound1389]

@@jandreid1056 I buy in bulk and divide into small packs of 2-4 dogs then I freeze them and I go straight from freezer to the pan. I found out you don't need to defrost if you plan ahead

[@jandreid1056]

​@@hellhound1389 they don't do that method because if you put them in the hot pan straight from the freezer then the meat insides will not be cooked the same time as the outside skin because the insides are still frozen (the meat still retains water) and therefore the slowest to get cooked. They find it better to let them thaw in a tiny amount of boiling water and let all the water evaporate first before cooking them with color.

[@teenamaree5660]

I love hot dogs but don't buy them because of the salt content. So I have decided to boil them first, remove from the water and grill in fry pan without adding fat. Now I can enjoy having my hot dogs once in awhile. 😆 When I was growing up, my family always boiled our hot dogs...sometimes until they split open. 😆🤣

Hot dogs are just bologna. Great browned on the griddle.

You have to season it because it’s full or hormones and steroids

The official hotdog of the bronx.my grandma worked there when we were kids.still love them at 65 yo.

What,it's the only boiled meat I like ! 🤣 I have started steaming them now. I could be down with a dirty water dawg though. Gotta love the fine folks in New York 🔥👍🌭

[@ruthratliff595]

I like to fry my hot dogs that way i like to let them get brown and a little burn just like they been on the pick.

[@thankyoucomeagain9130]

If its not beef hotdogs then its the same as bologna...

[@michaeldavis2021]

I boil hot dogs to cut the sodium. I have hypertension. They are better I love mustard and my wheat hot dog rolls. It has always been delicious.

[@tristankelsey1746]

The best way to cook hotdogs is deep frying until they start to rip open. Best hotdog you will ever try

[@ricksmith4716]

I wrap hot dog in foil then hold over a candle for six hours, when finished I get a genuine sense of accomplishment 😁

[@1luv4j]

Pre low simmer in distilled water and rice vinegar. Then grill them.

[@Stuff_And_Things]

Well I mean...If you buy cheap hotdogs you get what you pay for. Get a quality dog made for sitting in a vat of hot water in a New York street vendor stand and its just gonna get better and better. ;)

[@jtichenor89]

I literally just put them in the microwave and have always thought that boiled hot dogs are disgusting mostly tasteless

[@hellhound1389]

I prefer the grill but if I can't cook outside then I use a small skillet. Seer the dogs (kosher dogs only) then after they've taken on the proper color I add water and lower to simmer

[@JDen4]

Lol what is your point? It actually remove most of the toxicity food coloring in the hotdog

[@Bob-dv2yw]

I rather leave the salt out of all products and add my own low dose of salt I love Iy kidneys BOB

[@SebastianRodriguez-bs4wh]

The mushed hobdog isnt too bad actually wen fried on a pan right after boiling, gives a grilly taste and well cooked inside

[@himhim3344]

If you like natural casing then we can't be friends

[@greenmtnman7714]

My Mom made Essem hot dogs & steamed bread for supper. Prick the dogs with a fork first so they don't burst. Wrap the bread in a thin towel in a colander over the steaming dogs. (Amazing) All we had back then was white Wonder bread & French's mustard.

[@hellhound1389]

When I was a kid I didn't know hotdogs were supposed to be in a bun. My family always used bunny bread and pilochmans mustard, a few of my sacrilegious members would put ketchup on their dogs. Now with my own family I kept the mustard but use buns plus I taught my kids ketchup is for the fries not the dogs. I use a small skillet with a small amount of water to boil the dogs. I then put a baking rack on top to steam the buns 🤤

[@grapetonenatches186]

Because when you finally take them out they taste like water.

[@ryantourney2879]

Airfryer for 5 minutes...perfect every time.

The worst way to cook a hotdog outside of a microwave oven is to boil them.

[@jimdellavecchia4594]

Foreman Grill is great for cooking hot dogs and so many other things

[@LeviSinclairyt]

Me watching this eating a hotdog

[@NeonKue]

I mean, boiling any meat as a way to cook it entirely is terrible unless you’re making a slow stock/broth that will simmer in concentrated flavors and seasonings.

[@williamrosenow6176]

When I was a kid in the 70s we had Crazy Daze. The day when all the stores move the crap they couldn't sell onto the street and marked it down to get rid of it. They had a giant 5 gallon pot full of boiled hot dogs for 10 cents each. I loved them and ate them but have never boiled a hot dog for around 30 years. Boil 5 hot dogs is crap, boil 100 hot dogs = good.

[@aurathedraak7909]

just grill them

[@Timothy7877]

Who gives a shit.

[@stonecoldracing6]

Don’t boil, get the water to boiling, add seasoning and cut the heat to low. Wait a minute, then add the dogs. This poaches them and keeps them from splitting

[@Squirrelex]

I boil hot dogs for shorter than 5 minutes, just long enough for them to get hot inside. They lose flavor the longer they are boiled

[@rayc3103]

I buy cheap hot dogs, so I need to boil the salt out. Also, it tastes a lot better than roasting because it's way more moist. I prefer the taste of boiled hot dogs

[@rottingcorpse6002]

I'm a trucker, and I steam my dogs in a DC powered travel stove. During the last minute, I put the buns in so they get warm and moist.

[@Chupazombra]

People over boil hotdogs??? I just don't like salt and was told to cut it back by my doctor.

[@aking3624]

On the rare occasion i cook um' ... I poke a few holes and place in a skillet @ med /high heat with 2 tlb of water. They steam slightly then grill! When they start to dance in the skillet, they're done!! 😄

[@tom165983]

Because they get over done and split… leaving a dry hotdog lol had a customer at work say that.. then I realized he was correct about that lol

[@dablackartist]

Eh I’m hungry. I’ll cook them anyway I want

[@EvilMonkeyReturns]

Gross... who the hell boils hotdogs 🌭? The only way and the correct way to cook them is to char them on the grill till they're almost black on the outside bursting at the intestinal skins.
