Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Beef patties — For a juicier patty, avoid pressing down on them while grilling to retain the natural juices.
  • Hotdog buns — Toasting the buns adds a delightful crunch and prevents them from becoming soggy.
  • Ham — Grilling the ham slices for a few minutes enhances their smoky flavor and adds a delicious crispness.

Tips & Tricks

  • Experiment with different types of cheese, such as Swiss or pepper jack, to add a unique twist to your Hamdog.
  • For a spicier kick, consider adding jalapenos or hot sauce to your condiments.
  • If you prefer a smokier flavor, you can use smoked cheddar cheese or add a touch of liquid smoke to the beef patties.
  • Customize your toppings by adding sliced avocado, crispy bacon, or caramelized onions for extra flavor.
  • Don't forget to serve your Hamdogs with a side of crispy fries or a refreshing salad.

Serving advice

Serve the Hamdogs on a platter, allowing your guests to customize their toppings according to their preferences. Provide a variety of condiments and sides to complement the flavors of the Hamdog.

Presentation advice

To enhance the visual appeal, you can skewer each Hamdog with a decorative toothpick and garnish the platter with fresh herbs, such as parsley or cilantro. Serve them on a wooden board or a colorful plate to make them even more enticing.
