While not the traditional method, hot dogs can be cooked in a slow cooker for a hands-off approach. This recipe is suitable for casual gatherings or when convenience is key. Be aware that slow cooked hot dogs may not have the same snap or flavor as other cooking methods.
Ingredients:
Hot dogs (quantity depending on your slow cooker size)
Instructions:
Fill the Slow Cooker (Optional):
Standing upright, place as many hot dogs as comfortably fit in a single layer inside your slow cooker.
Slow Cooker Settings:
Cook on high heat for 2 hours, or until the center of the hot dogs reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Note: You don’t need to add water to the slow cooker, as the hot dogs themselves contain moisture.
Keeping Warm:
Once cooked, switch the slow cooker to the “warm” setting to keep the hot dogs warm until ready to serve.

Quantity: It’s recommended to use a smaller quantity of hot dogs (less than 10) to ensure even cooking throughout.
Internal Temperature: Since slow cookers can have temperature variations, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the hot dogs for safe consumption.
Texture and Flavor: Be aware that slow cooked hot dogs may have a softer texture and less flavor compared to other cooking methods like grilling or pan-frying.
