We don't have hotdogs very often. When we do, we do it right! Here's an easy recipe to make hotdogs worth your while.
Put in a crock-pot:
- 1 package Hebrew National hotdogs
- 1 can Frank's Bavarian Style sauerkraut (Do NOT drain or rinse. This isn't regular kraut. You want all of the tasty goodness to flavor the dogs.)
- 1 beer (whatever you have on hand is fine)
Cook on low for 5 hours or until dogs are heated through. Check them an hour before serving. If they are still cold, turn it up to high. You can't ruin these things.
I like my dog served on a bun with chopped onions, sliced tomatoes and celery salt. I like my kraut on the side, but you can throw it on top of the dog if you are feeling adventurous :)
If you are going to make this for large crowds, just make sure to have enough beer and kraut to cover the dogs. It makes a great dish for a buffet and it's a lot easier than having someone grilling dogs for the masses.
