Biff's Grilled Hot Dogs
My son Berkeley prefers to eat hot dogs cold, straight from the fridge (his favorite are the Oscar Mayer Cheese Dogs). However, if I have the time, I prefer my hot dogs grilled, served on a toasted whole wheat bun, and topped with grilled onions, grilled green and yellow peppers, sauerkraut, dill relish, a healthy serving of yellow mustard, and just a hint of ketchup (see image at right). Here is what is needed for the perfect grilled hot dogs:

1 package hot dogs, bratwurst, etc
1 package whole wheat hot dog buns
1 medium-sized sweet onion
1 yellow pepper
1 green pepper
olive oil
celery seed
fresh ground pepper
sauerkraut
dill relish
yellow mustard
ketchup

Preheat grill; medium to high heat.

Slice onion into ¼" thick slices and cut peppers lengthwise into ¼" to ½" slices. Combine several tablespoons of olive oil with a teaspoon or two of celery seed and some fresh ground pepper. Mix to combine. Generously brush each onion slice with oil mixture. Add cut peppers to remaining oil mixture and toss to combine.

Insert skewer into each onion slice along outside edge and push through center to opposite side. Skewer peppers through center (8 to 12 peppers per skewer depending on length of skewer). Grill onions and peppers until tender but not soggy.

Grill hot dogs and toast hot dog buns on grill. Serve with grilled onions, grilled peppers, sauerkraut, dill relish, mustard, and ketchup. Enjoy!
