Hot Dogs Smoked

[jlhog]

Has anyone ever threw some store bought Ball Park franks in the smoker? I have the MES loaded with jerky and some salmon right now. I was gonna do some hot dogs on the grill later for lunch, but thought I might throw a few in the smoker to see what happens. I am sure they will either turn out good or treats for the dog!!! Of course I had a lab mix years ago that would take hot dogs and bury them in the yard. Never saw a dog do that, most will gobble them down.

Well I just put 4 of the dogs in the smoker. If they turn out decent I will post pics in a few hours. I am betting they will be very tasty!!!

Dogs in the smoker are good! I always throw a few on when I smoke burgers. It's the only way to have them now.

any kind of meat smoked sounds good

I am guessing a couple hours at 190-200. Is that about right?

I cook those preecooked Johnsonville smoked sausages. Just a better hotdog in my opinion. Smoke them about an hour while the smoker comes to temp. Then I got something to eat while the real chow is cookin. Good stuff!

When I do the burgers I smoke around 230*. I only leave the dogs on for about an hr.

The last time I did pulled pork I also had a pack of Johnsonville Italian Sausages that I tossed in the smoker while the other stuff was cooking-they were awesome. Every sausage had its own smoke ring and the casings still had a little "snap" to them when you bit in. Hot dogs would have to be good in the smoker.

I do ball parks all the time in my little Cobb smoker. I Score them diagonally on each side to give them more surface for the smoke and so more of the fat drips away. When their almost done I add some honey bbq sauce to 1/2 of them for my grandkids who like them that way. The big folks eat the un-sauced ones. Delicious.

I usually throw anywhere from a 2 to 5 pound chub of bologna in with any smoke. Makes fine lunch sammiches for later.

I will have to try that next time. I did some on the smoker awhile back and they were disappointing

. But I think that was my problem. I didn't puncture them at all and they tasted greasy.

It did not make sense then. I actually like cold hot dogs, love hot hot dogs, smoked hot dogs seemed like a natural. Will score them or puncture next time to get rid of some of the fat.
