Hot Dogs with an English Twist

Directions

1. 1

   Preheat a griddle or frying pan to medium-high heat and add the oil.

2. 2

   Score the hot dogs in a crosshatch pattern on all sides using a knife to help them crisp and absorb flavor.

3. 3

   Place the hot dogs onto the hot surface and cook, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and slightly crispy on the outside.

4. 4

   Warm the hot dog buns on a cooler part of the grill or in a pan until lightly toasted, being careful not to burn them.

5. 5

   While the buns are still warm, add grated cheese inside so it begins to melt.

6. 6

   Crush the pork scratchings into small pieces, leaving some texture for extra crunch.

7. 7

   Place each cooked hot dog into a bun and spoon over apple sauce.

8. 8

   Add mustard if using, then sprinkle generously with the crushed pork scratchings.

9. 9

   Serve immediately while hot, with a balance of sweet apple sauce, tangy mustard, and crunchy topping
