• servings: 16 servings
• active time: 5 minutes
• total time: 1 hour 35 minutes

Ingredients

16 jumbo all-beef hot dogs

2 Tablespoons yellow mustard

2 Tablespoons barbecue rub

4 Tablespoons butter

¼ cup brown sugar

½ cup barbecue sauce

Directions

Preheat. Prepare your smoker for indirect cooking by preheating it to 225 degrees F.

Season. Slather the hot dogs with yellow mustard and season all over with the Sweet Rub.

Smoke. Place the seasoned hot dogs directly on the grill grates, close the lid, and smoke for 1 hour.

Braise. Remove the hot dogs and slice them into 1.5-inch pieces. Place the hot dog pieces into a disposable baking pan. Top with the butter, brown sugar, and BBQ sauce.

Finish smoking. Increase the heat on your grill to 375-400 degrees F. Place the pan of hot dog burnt ends on the grill and cook for an additional 15-30 minutes, stirring regularly, until the butter is melted and the sugars have started to caramelize on the hot dogs.

Enjoy! Remove the hot dog burnt ends from the smoker to a serving platter. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
