Ingredients
- 8 pieces Hot dog buns
- 8 pieces Beef hot dogs
- 1 cup (shredded) Cheddar cheese
- 1 medium (finely chopped) Yellow onion
- 0.5 cup Pickle relish
- 0.5 cup Ketchup
- 2 tbsp Brown sugar
- 2 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp Yellow mustard
- 2 tbsp Butter

Directions
Step 1
Preheat a grill or stovetop griddle to medium heat.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, combine ketchup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, and yellow mustard. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture starts to simmer. Reduce heat and let it thicken for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 3
Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until caramelized, about 7-8 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 4
Grill the beef hot dogs on the preheated grill for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are evenly cooked and have light grill marks.
Step 5
Lightly toast the hot dog buns on the grill for 1-2 minutes, just until golden and warm.
Step 6
Place grilled hot dogs into the toasted buns. Top each with a spoonful of the prepared barbecue sauce.
Step 7
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over each hot dog, followed by caramelized onions, pickle relish, and crumbled bacon.
Step 8
Garnish with sliced scallions for a pop of freshness and serve immediately.
