Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to whip up these delightful smoked cheese dogs:
- 4 hot dogs
- 4 slices of your favorite cheese (cheddar or pepper jack work great)
- 1 package of your favorite hot dog buns
- Smoked paprika for a little kick
- BBQ seasoning (optional)
- Wood chips for smoking (hickory or applewood)
Instructions
Now, let’s get down to business. Follow these simple steps, and you’ll be savoring smoked cheese dogs in no time:
- First things first, preheat your smoker to about 225°F. The low and slow method is gonna bring out all the good flavors.
- While that’s heating up, grab your hot dogs and make a slit down the middle of each one. Be sure not to cut all the way through; just enough to create a pocket for that cheesy goodness!
- Now, take the cheese slices and stuff them generously into the slits you just made. Make sure to pack it tight!
- Once you’ve stuffed all the hot dogs, sprinkle a little smoked paprika and BBQ seasoning on top for extra flavor.
- Time to hit that smoker! Place the cheese dogs on the grates and toss in some wood chips. Let them smoke for about 45 minutes to an hour. You want that cheese nice and gooey and the hot dogs perfectly smoked.
- When they’re done, carefully remove them from the smoker. Pop those beauties into your hot dog buns, and they’re ready to go!
That’s it, y’all! Your smoked cheese dogs are ready to be devoured. Serve ‘em up with some fries or a crispy salad, and watch everyone fall in love with this simple yet flavor-packed dish. Happy munching!
