Open Face Hot Dogs Recipes

OPEN FACE CHILI DOG

Steps:

• Take the raw hotdogs and slice 2/3 of the way through every half an inch (not lengthwise but as if you were cutting it up and not cutting all the way through).
• Place hotdogs in pot and cook per directions on package, as they cook they will curl into circles.
• Re-heat chili.
• Place the now circular hotdogs on the bottom hamburger buns, fill the center with chili to overflowing.
• Sprinkle with cheese and onions, then place top bun upside down on top of the chili, top with a little more chili and cheese and enjoy!

OLD FASHIONED LUNCHEONETTE HOT DOG

Steps:

• Heat oil in a non-stick pan to medium heat.
• Prepare fresh buns by opening and buttering them.
• Add sliced or chopped onions to fry. When browned, remove onions to keep warm, or keep them in the pan pushed to the side.
• Slice hot dogs down the middle but not all the way through (keep it connected). You want to pry them open to have a double wide face down hot dog.
• Lay them flat, cut side down in the seasoned pan and cook until brown, Flip to the other side and brown.
• When browned to your liking, remove from pan. Keep pan on medium heat.
• Put buttered buns face down in the hot pan to toast them (I press them down a couple of times so butter and pan connect). When nice and brown, remove them.
• Assemble the hot dog and sauteed onions into the bun.
• Dress with mustard and ketchup and anything else your heart desires! Pour a nice, ice cold Coke with a straw, add some krinkle fries, and enjoy a trip back in time!
