Hot Dogs
1 (1 lb.) pkg. hot dogs (8 dogs)
8 hot dog buns
Topping
1/4 c. chopped, jarred pickled jalapeno chiles
1 c. shredded taco cheese blend
Hot Dogs: Prepare grill with hot charcoal or heat a gas grill. Grill the hot dogs for about 8 mins. total, turning several times during cooking.
Toast hot dog buns, if you wish. Slice each grilled hot dog lengthwise, three-quarters of the way through, being careful not to cut the dogs all the way through.
Topping: Spoon about 1/2 tsp. chopped jalapenos into the slice in each hot dog. Sprinkle and distribute about 2 Tbsp. of the cheese over the jalapenos on each hot dog.
Carefully grill hot dogs, without spilling any of the topping, for another 1 minute to melt the cheese. Place the dogs in the toasted buns.
