Ingredients
- 4 pieces hot dogs
- 1 cup baked beans
- 4 pieces hot dog buns or sandwich rolls
- 1 cup cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons chopped green onions (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Slice the hot dogs lengthwise in half and place them cut-side down in the skillet.
Step 2
Cook the hot dogs for 4-5 minutes until they are browned and heated through. Remove from skillet and set aside.
Step 3
In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium-low and add the baked beans. Stir occasionally and let them heat through for 3-4 minutes.
Step 4
While the baked beans are heating, preheat the oven broiler to low or set it to 375°F for toasting.
Step 5
Split the buns or sandwich rolls and lightly butter the inside surfaces with the remaining butter. Place them on a baking sheet with the buttered side facing up.
Step 6
Toast the buns in the oven for 2-3 minutes until they are golden brown. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning.
Step 7
To assemble, spread mustard and ketchup on the toasted buns as desired. Place two hot dog halves on each bun.
Step 8
Spoon a generous amount of baked beans over the hot dogs and sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top.
Step 9
Return the assembled sandwiches to the oven and broil for 2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 10
Optional: garnish with chopped green onions before serving. Serve immediately and enjoy your Frank and Bean Sandwich!
