Instructions

ASSEMBLE THE CHILI CHEESE DOG TOPPINGS BEFORE GRILLING:

  1. Because this recipe comes together quickly after the hot dogs are grilled, it's important to have the other components ready to go. Be sure to have 2 cups cheddar cheese already shredded, 1 medium vidalia onion, finely diced, 8 spears dill pickle, sliced in half vertically, so they're smaller than the hot dog. Have 2 cups chili for chili dogs warmed in a saucepan.

GRILL THE HOT DOGS:

  1. Heat the grill to a low heat (about 350°-400°) to prevent the hot dogs from splitting as they cook.
  2. Place 8 natural casing hot dogs on the hot grill grates and cook, turning every few minutes to ensure grill marks on all sides of the frankfurters. This should take between 5-8 minutes to grill. Transfer the grilled hot dogs to 8 soft hot dog buns.

ASSEMBLE THE CHILI CHEESE DOGS:

  1. Tuck 1-2 pickle spears into the bun beside the hot dog. Add mustard to the hot dog and spoon ¼ cup of chili for chili dogs over each hot dog. Sprinkle with cheddar cheese and chopped onions. Enjoy.
