**The Art of Making Slinky Dogs: A Barbecue Pitboys Recipe**
Welcome to BarbecuePitboys.com! Today, we’re grilling up some delicious slinky dogs at the pit, and it’s simpler than you might think. Let’s dive into this easy-to-follow guide inspired by our video transcription.
### Ingredients You’ll Need
- **Hot Dogs**: A couple of your favorite hot dogs.
- **Cheese**: Shredded cheese for that extra melted goodness.
- **Relish**: Pickle relish to add a tangy kick.
- **Garlic Powder**: For an aromatic twist.
- **Mustard**: Essential for any dog, but feel free to use your favorite variety.
- **Seasoning**: Don’t miss out on our Big Texan rub—it’s a must-try!
- **Butter**: Hot dogs taste best with butter, as you know!
- **Onions**: Diced onions for some crunch.
- **Summertime Liquid Entertainment**: That’s mustard, of course!
### Preparing the Sausages
The key to slinky dogs is the unique slit technique. Using a paring knife, make diagonal cuts along the hot dog without cutting all the way through. This creates those iconic slinky-like slits that hold condiments perfectly.
### Mixing Your Seasoning
Here’s where we add some flavor magic. Mix butter with garlic powder and a sprinkle of Big Texan rub. If you’re feeling spicy, throw in a dash of heat. Use your fingers to combine everything—it’s the easiest method!
### Grilling Tips
Place the slinky dogs on the grill, but avoid direct charcoal contact. This helps control the heat and ensures they cook evenly without burning.
### Assembly Time
Once grilled, it’s time to assemble! Start with a hot dog roll as the base. Load up with mustard—it goes perfectly into those slits. Add shredded cheese, diced onions, pickle relish, and don’t forget more of that Big Texan rub for extra flavor.
### Finishing Touches
For an added kick, try chipotle habanero sauce. Once everything is layered on, let the pitmaster take a bite right in front of you—no apologies here!
