Ingredients
- 8 hot dogs, sliced down the middle, but not all the way through
- 8 buns, soft and fresh from the bakery
- 1 onion, chopped or sliced in rings
- oil, a splurt...for cooking
- butter, (real butter!) to spread on buns
Method
- 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!
