I will never understand why some people prefer to boil hotdogs instead of just microwaving them. They taste better and it's way faster.
Depends on the hotdog. Beef franks in natural casing? Boil. Chicken/pork dogs? Do whatever you want with them, it ain't gonna save them.
Don't you degenerate my Oscar Meyer! He died for our hot dog sins!
Pan fry or outdoor grill. I want that skin blistered and browned.
Microwaves with the wire rack instead of the glass plate end up giving 'em grill marks as if they were lightly BBQd if you put them directly on the wire rack. But grilling is still the better option when you have time.
I will toss them on some foil in the toaster oven rather than boil them.
I air fry my hot dogs now after nearly two decades of boiling them, and a few years of baking them.
