Ketchup Marinade Is The Key To Crackly Hot Dog Bliss
While there are many condiments and ingredients to add to a hot dog, coating it with a quick ketchup marinade can help take your meal to a whole new level.
To make the marinade, combine ketchup, soy sauce, minced garlic, vegetable oil, and your mustard of choice in a bowl before pouring the mixture into a wide plate.
Next, run a skewer through the hot dog lengthwise. Use a sharp knife to score it diagonally four times on each side without cutting all the way through.
Roll the hot dog in the marinade several times using the skewer as a handle until it is fully coated. Grill the hot dog until the slices open up and it becomes charred.
