Tips from the

Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    We tested these with regular and bun-length hot dogs. Both sizes work well, so feel free to use whatever you have on hand.
  • tip 2
    There’s no need to turn the corn dogs, since they’re basically baking on the grill. Don’t cover with foil or pull up the sides of the foil while grilling. The foil is used as a disposable cookie sheet. Place foil on unrimmed baking sheet or cutting board to easily transfer to the grill.
  • tip 3
    Indirect heat grilling essentially turns your grill into an oven. Heat one side of the grill, and place food on the opposite side. Since this method is closer to baking than traditional grilling, avoid opening your grill too often during cooking, as this will let heat escape.
