Grilled Cheese Dogs

1/14/2024

Ingredients for one sandwich:

• 1/2 tbsp butter
• Two slices white bread
• One slice mild cheddar cheese
• One slice pepperjack cheese
• Shredded cheese mix
• One hot dog
• 1 tbsp vegetable oil

1. Wait for the hot dog to defrost, and score it
2. Flip the hot dog over and butterfly cut it, ensuring it doesn't fully split in half
3. Put some vegetable oil into a skillet, and heat on medium-high until slightly smoking
4. Once smoking, cook hotdog until properly seared on both sides (usually about 2-3 minutes per side)
5. Turn off heat once crisp, put hot dog onto the side, and cover
6. Microwave butter for 5 seconds, to slightly liquify it
7. Take two slices of bread, and evenly spread butter on one side per each slice
8. Flip over one of the buttered bread slices, and place one of your cheese slices onto the non-buttered side.
9. Take the hot dog and cut it width-wise, being careful to preserve the earlier butterfly cut. Take each half, and place them onto the bread/cheese stack side by side
10. Place the other cheese slice on top of the hot dog, and then sprinkle the shredded cheese on top.
11. Place the other bread slice on top to form a sandwich, buttered side facing up.
12. Reheat skillet, then place the sandwich onto it. Wait about 1-2 minutes until bottom is golden brown, occasionally checking the bottom
13. Take two spatulas and flip the sandwich over and do the same for the other side. Once both sides are golden brown, it's ready!
