You may think that burnt ends can only be made with brisket or pork belly.

These are both excellent choices and typically the options I prefer.

But if you’re looking for a quick snack to throw together for your neighborhood party and don’t want to spend a lot of money, look no further than Hot Dog Burnt Ends.

They’ll be done in 2.5 hours or less and be gone in far less than that.

What are Hot Dog Burnt Ends? 

Hot dog burnt ends are essentially smoked hot dogs that have been slow cooked on a smoker and slathered in flavor! We used a combination of brown sugar, mustard, BBQ and a seasoning blend to add flavor.

Do you just use the end of a hot dog? 

Hot Dog burnt ends use the whole hot dog, cut up into smaller pieces. Traditional burnt ends are just the end parts of beef brisket or pork belly, but hot dogs are a bit different!

Do Burnt Hot Dog Ends taste burned? 

Despite the name, these hot dogs taste anything but burned! They have a fantastic smoky flavor that is completely irresistible.

Hot Dog Burnt End Ingredients 

Here’s what you’ll need to make this recipe:
— your favorite hot dogs : We prefer Ball Park brand, but you’re welcome to use what you love or what you have on hand!
— seasoning blend: We used Traeger’s Pork and Poultry blend but you can also use 
— mustard
—brown sugar
—your favorite BBQ sauce

What type of wood chips do I use?

For these hot dogs, I recommend you use Cherry  or Pecan wood chips. You can find them at several places like ACE Hardware or Traegergrills.com 

How to make Hot Dog Burnt Ends 

Here’s how to make them:

Season the Hot Dogs 

 

First, preheat your smoker to 225 degrees F.

Combine the mustard and the poultry seasoning blend. Stir and set aside. I used Traeger’s Pork and Poultry seasoning for these.

Smoke Hot Dogs on Low Heat 

Cover Hot Dogs in mustard and Traeger pork and poultry seasoning  then place whole Hot Dogs on smoker and smoke for 1 hour to 90 minutes.

Increase Temp and Add Flavor 

Increase smoker temperature to 350 degrees F.

Remove hot dogs from smoker and cut into 1.5-2 inch lengths. (Don’t forget this step or you’ll have to cut them hot like I did.) Place in a 9×13 foil pan.

Stir together Brown Sugar, Butter and BBQ sauce. Pour on top of cut hot dogs and stir thoroughly. 

Final Smoke 

Place back in the smoker and cook for another 30-45 minutes stirring occasionally. You can cover with foil if you would like, but they don’t have to be.

Remove from smoker and place toothpicks in as many burnt ends as you can for easy dishing.

LONG POST (but worth reading) The last two days, I LONG POST (but worth reading) The last two days, I’ve had the awesome opportunity to serve as a volunteer for my church at the Deseret Mill & Pasta Plant for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Here we help package food that goes out to people in need ALL-OVER-THE-WORLD! I’m amazed at the insane amount of that food gets cranked out every day! Here are some stats for you that came off of just my lines the last two days. (There were 4 other lines running.)
4,860 packages (270 boxes, 5 pallets, 7,300 lbs.) of Chocolate Cake Mix. 
17,280 packages (720 boxes, 10 pallets, 18,000 lbs.) of Spaghetti. 💪🏻💪🏻
And these were in two 4 hour shifts of one food item. There are oats, onions, potatoes, beans, spaghetti, macaroni, rice, wheat, dry milk, sugar, apple slices, honey. And the list goes on and on. Glad to be a part of such an awesome cause and way of life! .

I walked my mom through roasting a turkey breast a I walked my mom through roasting a turkey breast and she knocked it out of the park. My mom rarely cooked the meat growing up. Not because she didn’t want to but because my dad was so dang good at it. I’d say she’s got what it takes. Way to go momma!
