Wow, I was blown away by these Buffalo hot dogs. They’re crazy easy to make, but they have a little wing-like kick (thanks to plenty of Frank’s RedHot sauce) and the blue cheese absolutely go great with hot grilled all-beef hot dogs. Wing sauce on a hot dog is a great thing. Skip the ketchup.

Buffalo Hot Dogs

Look Different. Taste Fantastic.

The celery and carrot topping added a nice crunch to these dogs. I have to admit, when I order or make chicken wings, I tend to skip the veggies. But, these dogs need them.

These are the kinds of dogs where I think split-top hot dog buns are almost a must. They used to be hard to find, but now split-top buns are a bit more common. They’re easier to load up with toppings. Sometimes, I bit too easy perhaps. But the good part is that those toppings stay in place if you have to set the dogs down on your plate.

Of course, if you don’t have split-top buns the solution is simple. Don’t set your hot dogs down! Ever!

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 mine cooked up on a charcoal grill or in an air fryer. I get a crunchy skin. And I like that. And I can throw the buns on the grill or into the air fryer 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 will 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!

If you want to keep the Buffalo wing theme going, just serve these dogs with some Buffalo slaw! Buffalo hot dogs prove that more ‘Buffalo’ is a good thing!
