Lunch Box Hot Hot Dogs Recipes

LUNCH BOX HOT HOT DOGS

Steps:

• Prepare your child's lunch box by packing the hot dog bun, ketchup, mustard and Cheddar cheese.
• Preheat your child's insulated beverage container by filling with boiling water. Let stand for 15 to 20 minutes.
• I put the kettle on when I get up and let it heat while the kids get ready for school. Right before they leave, dump out that water and replace with more boiling water. The preheating keeps it hot for a longer time.
• Place a hot dog into the water and close the lid.
• When your child is ready for lunch, they can take the hot hot dog out of the container and place it on the bun. Top with ketchup, mustard and cheese to make a hot lunch from home.

HOT HOT DOGS

Steps:

• Slit hotdogs lengthwise and open to a "V".
• Insert about half a cheese slice and about 4 jalapeno slices into the slit of each hot dog.
• Tie hot dogs crosswise in 2 or 3 places with butcher's string to hold in the filling.
• Set up grill for direct grilling on hot coals.
• When coals are ready, place hot dogs on the grill, parallel to bars on the grate. Cook until browned on bottom, then roll the dogs slightly to brown both sides of the filled "V".
• Cook for 8 to 10 minutes.
• Transfer to a serving plate. Snip and remove strings before serving.
• Toast buns on grill for extra eye-appeal.
