Directions

• Set up your smoker or grill for indirect cooking with the heat on one side. Here we’re using a Weber Kettle w/ lump charcoal and Vortex accessory and griddling up some Okie Burgers to go with.
• Place the hot dogs on the grate, opposite the heat
• Optional: Add some wood chips for additional smoky flavor
• Cover and let smoke, rolling and flipping the hot dogs every 5 minutes
• While the hot dogs/sausages are cooking, shred the iceberg lettuce.
• Drain the Giardiniera and set aside in a bowl
• Dice onion and set aside in a bowl
• Steam the hot dog buns by placing in a damp paper towel and microwave for ~25 seconds. Alternately a colander over steaming water works well.
• Pull the hot dogs at 160F and place on the steamed buns.
• Dress your dogs and enjoy! We like ours well done – if you need to hold for a while, “Hot Tub” your dogs in a warm water bath.
