Ingredients

  • 8 beef hot dogs we like Nathan's or Hebrew National
  • 8 hot dog buns
  • your favorite hot dog toppings
For the sauce:
  • 3/4 cup ketchup
  • 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 Tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine sauce ingredients in a large pot. Heat on medium heat and whisk until all the ingredients are combined and the sugar is dissolved. Don't bring to a boil.
  2. Add hot dogs to the pot. Stir to evenly distribute the sauce.
  3. Cook on low for about 30 minutes, until the hot dogs are heated through. (don't discard the sauce-- you may want to pour extra over your hot dogs before eating). Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  4. Remove hot dogs from pot and grill on medium-high heat for about 2 minutes or so on each side or until desired doneness (I like mine just to have light grill marks). Place in buns and drizzle bbq sauce from pot over the hot dogs.
  5. Top with desired toppings.

Notes

  • You can also make this in a slow cooker. Heat the sauce on the stove, then add the hot dogs and sauce to a crock pot. Cook on high for 2 hours.
  • These delicious bbq hot dogs get grilled for just a few minutes after being cooked. For the best char grill marks, place the hot dogs on an angle on the grill grates.
  • Our favorite hot dog brands are Nathans and Hebrew National
