Treat your ingredients with care...
- Hot dogs — Choose high-quality hot dogs made with real meat for the best flavor and texture.
- Russian dressing — You can make your own Russian dressing by combining mayonnaise, ketchup, pickle relish, Worcestershire sauce, and a touch of hot sauce.
- Swiss cheese — Opt for a good-quality Swiss cheese that melts well, such as Emmental or Gruyere.
- Caraway seeds — Toast the caraway seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few minutes to enhance their flavor before sprinkling them on top of the Reuben Dogs.
- Sauerkraut — Drain the sauerkraut well to remove excess liquid before using it as a topping.
Tips & Tricks
- For added flavor, you can lightly butter the hot dog buns before toasting them.
- If you prefer a spicier kick, add a few dashes of hot sauce to the Russian dressing.
- Experiment with different types of sauerkraut, such as spicy or sweet varieties, to customize the flavor of your Reuben Dogs.
- If you don't have a grill, you can cook the hot dogs on a stovetop griddle or in a skillet.
- Serve the Reuben Dogs with a side of crispy French fries for a complete meal.
Serving advice
Serve the Reuben Dogs immediately after assembling them to ensure the cheese is melted and gooey. Pair them with a side of coleslaw or potato salad for a satisfying and delicious meal.
Presentation advice
To enhance the presentation, you can garnish the Reuben Dogs with a sprinkle of fresh chopped parsley or chives. Serve them on a platter lined with parchment paper for a casual and inviting look.
