And that's where you went wrong, friend.

Ballpark Franks are the fucking worst about this.

Their whole gimmick is "They plump when you cook 'em!"
Which might be great on the grill, but in the microwave it causes them to explode VERY easily.
Who knows what they put in them to cause this.

I made the mistake of buying a tonne of these when they were on sale, and now I have to deal with this shit.
Should've stuck to the 100% beef Jewish dogs.

If you absolutely have to, make small incisions along the length of the hotdog before you cook it. Unless you have a super microwave, they won't explode.

more like 'who knows what they put them in to cause this'.

As for what goes into them, it's usually cow lips and arseholes. It's the water and the fat that expand in the microwave, and the sausage casing is basically like a balloon. keep filling a balloon with water, and it will burst.

Poke holes in a sausage casing, or slice at regular intervals, and you'll give steam a vent to escape, and voilà, no more hot dog explosion.

put an egg in with it so the egg will absorb more of the microwaves and leave the hot dog in perfect condition

Microwave it in a water bath. I thought this shit was common knowledge.

How fucking hard is it to steam a hot dog? It's the same as microwaving even, you put it in the pot and leave it for ten minutes

>> No.5594360

>>5593878
>How to prevent this?

cook it with a lower heat setting or take it out sooner.

what's happening is the microwave is boiling the water inside the hot dog into steam, which is making it burst. You can fix this by using a lower heat setting, taking it out sooner, or microwaving it in a dish of water to spread the heat out.

I like boiling them and/or cooking them on the George Foreman grill. If you heat them in a pan they get weird bubbles unless you actually fry them. I am not frying a hot dog in grease. They plump nicely when you boil them. I also like to boil cabbage and then use the leftover water to boil hot dogs. It actually makes them taste really good, especially if you add spices or other stuff. I hate blackened grilled dogs more than anything though.

The hot dog itself is what gives you cancer dude. I still love them though.

try frying you dogs in a pan or grilling them , they'll taste much better .

>> No.5598343

I used to stab them a million times before I put them in the microwave.

Normally, I boil them instead, grilled ones aren't as good to me and take too fucking long.

>> No.5598393

>>5598343
Grilled are good if you get a nice hard skin on the outside and don't dry them out too much. You need thicker dogs for that. But I don't think anything beats a good old-fashioned dog prepared on a steam table by a weary fat guy served unceremoniously at 2 in the morning. I think it's the fat guy sweat and cigarette smoke that really seal in those juices.

Use the toaster oven you goddamn retard.

First off, fuck all the haters. If you're eating hotdogs you've already lost so good luck convincing yourself that steaming, baking, grilling, or barbequing a hot dog is going to make it BETTER than microwaving it. It'll taste different, sure, but you're still eating a fucking hotdog, chill the fuck out.

Anyway, to prevent your hotdog from getting mangled in the microwave, try taking a fork and poking holes through it on both sides. Release all the steam and help it cook a little more evenly.

i like to boil then fry
