So much fun for Halloween. The kids love them, and it actually is a tasty way to enjoy a hotdog because the strips brown on all sides. Toasting buns is optional, but we like them that way.

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 turkey hot dogs or 4 other hot dogs, your preference
4 hot dog buns or 4 hamburger buns
1 tablespoon butter, softened
assorted condiments

Steps:

  • Slice hotdogs in half lengthwise, then each half into thirds lengthwise to make 6 strips from each hotdog. Make a few shallow cuts along the length of each strip on the "skin" side. This will help them curl into worms as they cook.

TWINKIE® WIENER SANDWICH



Twinkie® Wiener Sandwich image

Probably one of the most infamous - or obscure - snacks in the world! Originally created by 'George Newman' ('Weird Al' Yankovic) in the movie 'UHF' - it has gained an almost cult-like following (as has the movie itself)!

Provided by Kevin

Categories     Hot Dogs and Corn Dogs

Time 15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 hot dogs
4 cream-filled sponge snack cakes (such as Twinkies™)
4 (4 inch) squirts of pressurized canned cheese (such as Easy Cheese™), or to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a saucepan of water to a boil over high heat. Add hot dogs, and boil until thoroughly hot, about 5 minutes; drain and keep warm.
  • Meanwhile, unwrap the snack cakes, and place onto a cutting board, upside-down. Cut halfway through the bottoms of the snack cakes with a small, serrated knife to create "buns" for the hot dogs.
  • Blot the hot dogs with a paper towel to remove excess water and place a hot dog inside each "bun". Remove the protective top from the can of cheese, and hold the nozzle close to, but not touching, the exposed side of the hot dog. Dispense cheese by decisively pressing the nozzle towards the hot dog and slowly drawing the tip along the hot dog in a straight line, or decorative pattern of your choice.

Tips:

  • Choose the right hot dogs. For the best flavor and texture, use high-quality hot dogs made with all-beef or a blend of beef and pork. Avoid hot dogs that are made with a lot of fillers or extenders.
  • Cook the hot dogs properly. The best way to cook hot dogs is to grill them over medium heat until they are browned and cooked through. You can also boil hot dogs in water or fry them in a pan, but these methods will not give you the same smoky flavor and texture as grilled hot dogs.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients you use, the better your wormy weenie sandwiches will be. Use fresh vegetables, a good quality chili sauce, and a soft, fluffy bun.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to make wormy weenie sandwiches. Experiment with different toppings and sauces to find your favorite combination.
  • Make it a fun meal. Wormy weenie sandwiches are a fun and easy meal that everyone will enjoy. Serve them with your favorite sides, such as chips, fries, or coleslaw.

Conclusion:

Wormy weenie sandwiches are a classic American comfort food that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give wormy weenie sandwiches a try. You won't be disappointed.
