This is so simple to make but tastes so good! My mom made this for us when we were younger and still a favorite of mine. Smoked sausage could also be used but I prefer the hot dogs. Serve this over mashed potatoes for total comfort food.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 2

8 hot dogs, I use Ball Park
28 ounces sauerkraut

Steps:

  • In a large skillet add the sauerkraut. Place hot dogs on top of the kraut.
  • Cover and let simmer 15-20 minutes or until hot dogs are plump and hot.
  • Serve over mashed potatoes.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality hot dogs: Opt for all-beef hot dogs with a good meat-to-fat ratio for a juicy and flavorful experience.
  • Grill or pan-fry your hot dogs: Grilling imparts a smoky flavor, while pan-frying gives you a crispy exterior. Ensure the hot dogs are cooked thoroughly.
  • Use a quality sauerkraut: Look for sauerkraut that is tangy and slightly sour. Avoid sauerkraut that is too vinegary or bland.
  • Shred your cheese: Shredding the cheese allows it to melt evenly over the hot dogs.
  • Top with your favorite condiments: Ketchup, mustard, relish, and onions are classic hot dog toppings, but feel free to experiment with other favorites.

Conclusion:

Hot dogs with sauerkraut and cheese are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a classic dish that is sure to satisfy. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty meal, give these hot dogs a try!
