Frying Hot Dogs in a Cast Iron Skillet

Once you have fried hotdogs in butter, in a cast-iron skillet, you’ll never be satisfied with boiled hotdogs ever again.

Butter is great, the hot dogs are bad enough for us lol! I usually boil in a small cast iron pan, as they are near complete, i drain any water off and and crisp them up. Add to buns, mustard and onion, sometimes kraut

Now I'm going to have to run out and get me some hot dogs

I've never done it this way, but thanks for the idea!

Newsflash: They won't explode if you don't make the slits.

I never cook dogs in water. Always cast iron griddle.

I boil them dry them and then do it like this too.

If toast the buns on that warm buttery skillet.

I just put hotdogs in the skillet add a little water after it steams off I start frying them in the pan. I think there's enough fat in hotdogs without the added butter.

i put the cold hot dogs in the microwave for 15 seconds before frying them in the skillet. done in about 3 or 4 minutes.

Put your hot dogs in the oven also tastes really great

I cut mine down the middle lengthwise, but not all the way through. Leave it connected with the skin. Fry it in bacon grease on both sides. I'm 42 and have been eating fried weenie sandwiches like this all my life. Mayonnaise and bread.

That's the way I do my dog's 😅😅😅

I’ve NEVER boiled a hotdog. Tiny amount of oil (or butter if you prefer but only enough to keep them from sticking), and then line ‘em up and roll them all together continuously. Comes out great and evenly cooked like on a roller grill. That’s disgusting anyone boils hotdogs other than in a Dirty Water Dog situation from a vendor.

Man I don’t know where I went wrong.. I followed this step by step but my hot dogs ended up in the floor and I accidentally stepped all over them before I realized what happened.. :(

This happen to anyone else?
