1Food Prep
First, butterfly the hot dogs by slicing them lengthwise without cutting all the way through.
Next, get your hot dog toppings together so they’ll be ready when the hot dogs come off the grill. Cut the 2 small Roma tomatoes into thin wedges, and dice ½ of a small white onion.

Fuel: We recommend Kingsford® Original Charcoal Briquets

3The Cook
When you’re at temp, put cooking oil on a folded paper towel. Grab the oiled paper towel with long-handled tongs and oil the grate thoroughly.
Gently open the butterflied hot dogs and lay them flat on the grill.
Cook for about 2 minutes on each side, until charred in spots and hot throughout.
Grill the buns quickly over the coals for about 1 minute, until they’re lightly toasted.
Place 1 hot dog on each bun and top with ¼ of the toppings. Add sport peppers to taste, then sprinkle with the celery salt.
Repeat with the remaining hot dogs and serve immediately — hot off the grill.
