This is my take on a great recipe posted by Jessica at Cajunlicious, one of my most favorite blogs to follow. Sadly, Cajunlicious is no more. Happily, I snagged the recipe for a muffuletta hot dog before it disappeared. And speaking of disappearing, that’s what happened to this scrumptious dish. I love muffuletta sandwiches. I love hot dogs. Now I can have both in one bite! This is nothing but a big win for me. Olive salad and hot dogs isn’t that big of a stretch when you think of it. Isn’t a hot dog just sandwich meat in a tube? Yeah… kinda.
One Fantastic Hot Dog
I often make my own olive salad, but I had a bit of Boscoli’s left over from making muffuletta sandwiches and a pasta salad so I used that for this muffuletta hot dog. The end result was fantastic!
I think olive salad is a thing of beauty. And tremendous flavor. I sometimes make it at home using my favorite recipe. It takes a bit of effort and a number of ingredients, but boy, is it ever worth it. I use it on darned near everything. From hot dogs to sandwiches to salads. I really think it’s one of the best things ever conceived of.

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!
