Hot dogs are one of my favorite foods. There are a plethora of quick and easy ways to prepare them. The simple procedure is one of my favorites, and the results are delicious.

Boiling Hot Dogs

Aside from utilizing your crockpot, instant pot hot dogs are the easiest and quickest way to cook hot dogs for a crowd.

This is accomplished using a pressure cooker, which boils hot dogs under pressure. Pressure cooker hot dogs, whether fresh or frozen, will quickly become your go-to for entertaining because they are ready in less than 10 minutes.

Aside from grilling or using your air fryer, one technique for cooking hot dogs is to boil them. You can make this in your instant pot or on the stovetop.

Because of the convenience of the instant pot and the time it saves, I enjoy making instant pot hot dogs. If they are frozen, I cook them for zero minutes (after the IP comes to pressure) if they aren’t frozen, and roughly one minute if they are.

Hot dog ingredients for the Instant Pot

That depends on the toppings you like on your hot dogs. I prefer to keep mine simple because that is what my children want. Feel free to add some onion powder, chile powder, or other spices.

I use water as the liquid. You can use beer or a mixture of half beer and half water.

The time it takes to boil or cook hot dogs will vary depending on the method utilized.

In an instant pot, it takes zero minutes to cook hot dogs without a casing, often known as skinless hot dogs. When cooking hot dogs with casings, you may wish to add an extra minute.

How are you boiling your hot dogs? It’s no problem. It can take up to 6 minutes to cook hot dogs on the stove top. Cook for one additional minute or two if cooking from frozen.

Ingredients

• Seven hot dogs

• 1 quart of water

Method

• Place the hot dogs and water in the Instant Pot’s inner pot.
• Select “manual pressure cook,” set the timer to zero minutes, and turn the steam release handle to the sealing position.
• After the cooking cycle is finished, perform a fast pressure release.
• Only open the pot when the float valve is closed. Using kitchen tongs, separate the hot dogs.
• Dish out

Alternatively,

• If you’re cooking frozen hot dogs, set the timer for one minute instead of zero.
• If you’re anxious that the hot dogs will burst open in the instant pot, pierce them with a fork before putting them in. I’ve never had that issue when cooking hot dogs in the air fryer.
• Even if you’re making a large number of hot dogs, the timing will not vary.

If you’re boiling hot dogs on the stove, bring the water to a boil first, then add the hot dogs and cook for 5–6 minutes. If using frozen hot dogs, add a minute or two to the cooking time.

Boiling Hot Dogs: The best technique to make hot dogs for a crowd or large group.

With the size of your instant pot in mind, make hot dogs for a crowd in an instant pot or pressure cooker.

• In the inner pot, arrange the hot dogs in a standing configuration.

• Fill the inner pot halfway with water, select manual pressure cook, and set the timer to zero minutes. If you’re cooking from frozen, choose 1 minute.

• When the cooking cycle is finished, make a quick release and serve, or leave it in the instant pot on warm.

Follow the methods below to make hot dogs for a crowd in a slow cooker, keeping in mind the size of your crockpot or slow cooker.

• Depending on how long your slow cooker is or how well they fit, arrange hot dogs in a standing or reclining posture. When making hot dogs in the slow cooker, there’s no need to add water.

• Cook for 4 hours on low or 2 hours on high in a slow cooker.

• When it’s done, keep it warm in the slow cooker until ready to serve.

Boiling Hot Dogs: Other ways to cook hot dogs

• On the grill outdoors

• Air fryer hot dogs: Air fryer hot dogs are comparable to grilled hot dogs and take about 6–8 minutes to prepare.

• Stovetop grilling: this is similar to pan-frying the hot dogs and just takes 5 to 6 minutes. To get those grill marks, I like to use a grill pan with lines.

• In the microwave, place hot dogs in a microwave-safe dish and cover them with a paper towel. Microwave on high for up to a minute at 30-second intervals.

Boiling Hot Dogs topping ideas

We enjoy adding a variety of toppings to our hot dogs. We even enjoy doing a hot dog toppings bar in the warmer months. Here are a handful of our personal favorites:

What to serve with hot dogs: top favorite dishes for serving

What is the best way to store them?

Hot dogs that have not been opened can be frozen for up to six months. Open hot dogs should not be kept in the fridge for longer than three days. Put them in the freezer.

Leftover hot dogs can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days in a firmly sealed container. If you want to store it for a longer period of time, freeze it.

Recipe Notes and Tips on Boiling Hot Dogs

• To keep the hot dogs from bursting open during cooking, stab them with a fork many times or cut slits into them. When making hot dogs in your pressure cooker, the chances of it bursting are relatively slim. When I make hot dogs in the air fryer and microwave, though, I poke them.
