Cuisine: American
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 4 hot dogs we prefer the all beef variety
  • 8 thin slices of Swiss cheese
  • 8 slices of deli ham
  • 4 buns
  • 1/2 of a red onion thinly sliced
  • prepared yellow mustard
  • 4 dill pickle spears

Instructions

  • Cook the hot dogs however you normally would.
  • Place the opened hot dogs buns on a baking sheet or in a baking dish and layer two pieces each of cheese and sliced ham over the inside of the bun. When the hot dogs are just about done cooking, put the buns in the oven and broil until they’re toasted and the cheese is melted. This step is optional. I prefer the toasty, melty cheese version, but the hungry sons usually skip it to get it on their plates faster
  • Place the cooked hot dogs in the buns and top each with a pickle, onions, and a drizzle of mustard.
