PARTY FRANKS



Party Franks image

This is a very old sweet and sour cocktail recipe; I remember looking forward to it as a kid at my Mom's holiday parties. It will look horrible and smell worse when first in the pan, but just wait. Don't ever tell what's in the sauce until after your guests have tasted it (otherwise they'll never try it). Serve with toothpicks; keep warm with a fondue pot.

These tiny, tangy appetizers have broad appeal. I prepare them often for holiday gatherings, weddings and family reunions. They're convenient to serve at parties since the sauce can be made ahead and then reheated with the franks before serving. -Lucille Howell, Portland, Oregon

Tips:

  • Use high-quality hot dogs: Opt for hot dogs made with premium meats and natural casings for the best flavor and texture.
  • Choose the right grilling method: You can grill hot dogs over direct heat for a quick char or indirect heat for a more gentle cooking process.
  • Don't overcrowd the grill: Overcrowding the grill will prevent the hot dogs from cooking evenly and will result in steamed rather than grilled dogs.
  • Flip the hot dogs regularly: Use tongs to gently flip the hot dogs every few minutes to ensure even cooking.
  • Don't overcook the hot dogs: Hot dogs are fully cooked, so you only need to heat them until they are warmed through. Overcooking will make them tough and dry.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Classic toppings for barbecued franks include ketchup, mustard, relish, sauerkraut, and onions. Get creative and experiment with different toppings to find your favorite combination.

Conclusion:

Party barbecued franks are a classic summertime dish that is easy to prepare and always a crowd-pleaser. By following these tips, you can grill up the perfect hot dogs for your next party. Whether you prefer classic toppings or something more unique, there are endless possibilities for creating delicious and memorable barbecued franks.
