Ingredients
- 1 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 2 large onions sliced thin
- 4 4 hot dogs
- 4 4 hot dog buns
- Ketchup, mayonnaise, and mustard to taste
Instructions
- Start by caramelizing the onions. Melt the butter in a medium-sized pan over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook for 3 minutes and then lower the heat to low and cook for 10 more minutes.
- While the onions are cooking start the hot dogs. Spear the hot dogs on your roasting sticks. Hold them close to but not directly in the flames. Rotate them a quarter turn about every minute or so. They will take about 7-10 minutes to warm through. If you want them a little more charred on the outside hold them in the flame at the very end.
- If you want to warm your bun, lay it over your hot dog and toast it over the fire - this works best if you have a double roasting stick.
- Top your hot dog buns with caramelized onions and all the condiments you want then put a hot dog on top and dig in!
