Preparation

Step 1

In a skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat. Add the onions and ham and saute until caramelized and browning (about 10-12 minutes). Season with salt and pepper. Turn heat to low and keep warm until ready to use.

Pre-heat grill to medium-high heat and grill hot dogs to liking. We like ours a little extra dark! Prepare hot dog buns by putting a little bit of mustard and 4-5 dill pickle slices. Add one hot dog per bun and top with a sprinkle of shredded Swiss cheese. Next, carefully place a generous scoop of the hot ham & onion relish on top (it will melt the cheese nicely!). Lastly, top with additional mustard if desired.

Enjoy!
