@Riesen Boil them in water, keeps them from drying out. If I'm really in a rush I'll microwave them but they tend to get weirdly bitter.
Me alone- cut almost in half, unfold, skillet, and make a hot dog sandwich.
With others- grill.
I have one of those hot dog steamers that looks like a dog and it barks when they're done cooking.
I didn't know I needed that in my life.
I mean, if you're a fan of single use appliances...
I am not. But I do love me some tube steaks.
Air Fryer. Its not quite as good as grilled, but still great and more convenient. Quicker than boiling and better than microwaving.
Put them in a flat heat resistant vessel, like a casserole dish. Pour boiling water over them untill covered. Wait a minute or three. Sausages are warm.
broiled
Boiling tends to be my go-to. I can't fire up the whole grill for just a single serving of hot dogs usually.
Air fryer I've found works alright to give sausages the kind of crispy exterior that they get when grilled, but I haven't tried it with hot dogs.
Tier 1 - grill or cast iron pan until moderately blistered
Tier 2 - microwave from frozen, 45 seconds for 1, or 1 min for 2
Tier 3 - boiled in beer, preferably with some pierogies
Buns: toasted>steamed>room temp
I don't cook, I make my wife do it.
...which is to say my hands do the cooking.
Microwave them for 45 seconds. Or, put it on a minute and cut it off right before the end.
