Foot-long smokey hot dog recipe

Grill the sausages until cooked through. Most hot dog recipes call for frankfurters, but we know there's more choice out there. Pick your favourite and stick with your instincts.

Put the hotdogs on the buns and serve with yellow mustard and Bull's-Eye Hickory Brown Sugar BBQ Sauce. In a list of America's favourite hot dog ingredients, you'll always see sauces come out on top.

Finish with the best hot dog toppings. In our opinion, that's crispy fried onions, sliced spring onions and gherkins.
