Cheese Dog Recipe


  • Author: ELISA
  • Total Time: 12 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Description

A Cheese Dog is a delicious, fun twist on the classic hot dog. A juicy sausage is stuffed with cheese and then grilled or baked for a melty, flavorful experience. Perfect for a quick meal or snack!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 hot dog sausages
  • 4 hot dog buns
  • 4 slices of cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
  • 1 tablespoon butter (optional for grilling)
  • 1 tablespoon mustard (optional)
  • Ketchup (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the sausages: Make a slit along the length of each sausage, deep enough to create a pocket but not all the way through.
  2. Stuff with cheese: Place a slice of cheese inside each sausage, pressing it gently to fit. If using shredded cheese, stuff it evenly into the pocket.
  3. Cook the sausages:
    • Grilling method: Preheat your grill and cook the sausages for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until the cheese is melted and the sausage is cooked through.
    • Pan-frying method: Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook the sausages for 5-7 minutes until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  4. Assemble the cheese dogs: Place each cooked sausage inside a hot dog bun.
  5. Serve: Add optional condiments like mustard and ketchup, and enjoy!
