Title: Reverse seared chili-dogs... (lol)
Post by: rwalters on April 08, 2018, 05:47:13 PM
I love a good chili dog, but I also like to enjoy the cooking process!  Why not drag it out a lil bit with reverse seared hot dogs. Weird, I know... BUT, it gave me a few more mins to play with fire :)

The setup:

It’s important you rest your weenie after a good sear ;)

Is that chip what I think it is?????  If so, it is the best chip in the world IMO. I love adding them to sandwiches & sinking my teeth into them

Yes, it’s “the chip!”  Probably my all-time favorite as well. After devouring the food in the pic, my next plate consisted of a bed of corn chips topped with chili/cheese/onions, then topped with a sliced up hot dog. It was really good! :)

  Reverse seared dogs! Great idea. Everyone can get them exactly like they prefer.   Should work great for sausage as well.
And the 26" kettle is on my bucket list....   one day....

Looks good.

I just did something like this yesterday. I made dogs and tots before my kids baseball practice. So I didn't have time to get the grill going. So I had this crazy idea to bake the hotdogs in the toaster oven while the tater tots where cooking. This allowed me to do other things and not baby sit them. So I had it set at 250 for about 20 minutes. My kid hates any bit of char marks (grill or pan) and this solves my problem perfectly. It also allowed it to char up faster in the pan when making mine and the wife's. Made up 4 chili dogs, put them in an 8x8 pan, and baked that for an extra 2 minutes. Warmed and toasted the buns perfectly.

Didn't use a grill and thought the action shots would suck. Plus I was busy.

 :D it was a toaster oven. They do make a hot dog toaster however. Cooks up 2 dogs and 2 buns.
