Equipment

  • Large Skillet

Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 4 all-beef hot dogs, preferably bun-length
  • 1/4 cup sweet pickle relish

  • 4-8 sport peppers
  • 4 split poppy seed hot dog buns
  • Yellow mustard
  • 1 small white onion, small-diced
  • 4 dill pickle spears
  • Celery salt

Instructions

  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.
  • Gently flatten hot dog buns and toast them in the butter until lightly golden.
  • Remove buns and set aside.
  • Increase heat to medium-high and add more butter to the skillet.
  • Cook hot dogs until browned and crispy on all sides.
