Time 35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

6 hot dogs
One 8-ounce tube crescent dough
Nonstick cooking spray
Ketchup and yellow mustard, for serving

Steps:

Soak 6 wooden skewers in water for 15 minutes.
Prepare a grill for indirect heat. (For a gas grill, turn one burner on each far side to medium heat and the middle burners to low; for a charcoal grill, bank the coals on one side of the grill.) A grill thermometer should read 325 to 350 degrees F.
Tear off a long piece of foil and fold into thirds so it's about the size of a baking sheet. Spray the foil with cooking spray.
Push the hot dogs onto the skewers so the hot dogs are flush with the top. Use a sharp paring knife to cut a spiral (4 or 5 rings total) along the hot dog, cutting all the way down to the skewer. Gently pull the hot dog down to open up the spiral.
Unwrap the crescent dough. Cut it crosswise into 6 pieces. Roll each piece into a snake 8 to 9 inches long. Press one snake into the cut spaces in each spiral, wrapping it as you go and tucking in the ends.
Set the foil on the indirect (low) heat part of the grill and add the hot dogs, leaving some space between each. Grill, covered, until the bottoms of the dogs are golden and top of the dough is set, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip the skewers and cook until the bottom is browned again, 5 to 6 minutes more. Flip once more to an unbrowned side and grill until the dough is cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes more.
Transfer the pigs in blankets to a platter and serve with ketchup and mustard.

Tips:

Select the right crescent roll dough: Look for crescent roll dough that is fresh and not too old. If the dough is too old, it will be difficult to work with and may not rise properly.
Use a sharp knife: When cutting the crescent roll dough, use a sharp knife to ensure clean and even cuts. A dull knife will tear the dough and make it difficult to work with.
Don't overfill the crescent rolls: When filling the crescent rolls, don't overfill them, or they will be difficult to close and may burst open during baking.
Bake the crescent rolls until they are golden brown: Bake the crescent rolls until they are golden brown in color. This will ensure that they are cooked through and have a crispy exterior.
Serve the crescent rolls warm: Serve the crescent rolls warm, as they are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven.
