  • Total Time: 25

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 hot dogs hot dogs (your choice of beef, turkey, or vegetarian)
  • 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
  • 2 tablespoons hot sauce (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional for extra heat)
  • 8 hot dog buns hot dog buns
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions (for garnish)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (optional)

Instructions

  • Start by preheating your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium heat.
  • In a bowl, mix together the barbecue sauce, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, honey, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper until well combined.
  • Take each hot dog and score them lengthwise with a knife, making shallow cuts. This allows the sauce to penetrate and adds to the flavor.
  • Place the hot dogs on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until heated through and slightly charred.
  • During the last minute of grilling, brush the hot dogs generously with the sauce mixture.
  • Remove the hot dogs from the grill and place them in the buns, topping them with more sauce, green onions, and cheese if using.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy!
