Ingredients
- 4 cups (shredded) Green cabbage
- 1 large (grated) Carrot
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 6 pieces Hot dogs
- 6 pieces Hot dog buns
- 2 tablespoons (optional, for toasting buns) Butter
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage and grated carrot to prepare the coleslaw base.
Step 2
In a smaller bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper until the dressing is smooth and creamy.
Step 3
Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrot mixture and toss until well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to let the flavors meld.
Step 4
While the coleslaw is chilling, prepare the hot dogs. Heat a grill or stovetop grill pan over medium heat and cook the hot dogs for about 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until heated through and slightly charred.
Step 5
Optional: Butter the insides of the hot dog buns and lightly toast them on the grill or a skillet until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 6
Place each hot dog in a bun and top generously with the chilled coleslaw.
Step 7
Serve immediately and enjoy!
