Sure, these southern-style picnic hot dogs are easy to make. But even better, they’re good! Easy and good don’t always go together. They sure do now! Nothing beats the crunchy coolness of a good slaw with the heat of a nice hot chili sauce! Yum! Nothing fancy, just great! Great for a big cookout or picnic, it doesn’t get any easier. Sure, I’ve had chili dogs before. And I’ve put slaw on my dogs before. But never had I combined the two on one hot dog! Oh my goodness! What I’ve been missing all these years!
Great For Lunch Or Dinner Too.
These southern-style picnic hot dogs made for a quick dinner the other night. I used packaged slaw mix with Marzetti light slaw mix. A store-bought tub of slaw would work just as well.
While the dogs were grilling I warmed the chili. From a can. Now, if I’d had a container of leftover no-bean chili in the fridge or freezer I’d have used that instead. But I didn’t. These aren’t fancy. They don’t require fancy chili. And canned works just fine!
Make sure you grab plenty of napkins when you bite into these dogs. You’re going to need them! Or maybe… paper towels might be a better idea.

Cookin’ Dogs
Hey, cook the dogs however you want, on whatever you want. Griddle. Grill. Stovetop. Boiled. Broiled. Steamed. Baked. I don’t care. I don’t mean that in a snobby way. I’m just saying you do you. I happen to like air-fried hot dogs. I get a crunchy skin. And I like that. And I can throw the buns in too if I want them toasted (and I do). I often like to cut a thin slit lengthwise down my hot dog before cooking it. That slit’ll open up a bit as the dog heats. When I put it on the bun, I put the hot dog slit face-up. It gives the toppings a wonderful place to go. And stay. They don’t pop out with each and every bite!
