Spiral Dogs




After seeing this on {Reddit} earlier in the week, I couldn't stand another day without trying this!  I am blogging about it because, well everyone on Pinterest should see this, and I don't know how to Pinterest Videos.  In fact, my husband sent me an email stating I needed to "Pinterest the shit out of this".  So, please help me by re-pinning if you too want to try these amazing dogs!

This is why you too will want to spiral cut your next hot dog!


Needed elements: knife, wooden skewers, hot dogs

Put the hot dog on the wooden skewer

It should be pretty much in the center

Cut through the dog to the skewer.  Make sure to angle your knife.

Roll the dog, continuing to slice til the end
Remove from skewer.  You'll see it's all connected and springy!

Prepare all that you intend on grilling


Grill them (YES, it is Valentine's Day and the Xmas lights are still festively lighting the grill area)
Look at all the surface area that was properly warmed and toasty goodness






THE BEST PART!!!!  THE CONDIMENTS FILL IN THE SPIRAL 'cracks'


Amazingness in a bun!  You'll never want another simple grilled dog!





I am not the originator of this idea, I just took pictures instead of a video.  The idea came from here.
