So good! Next time I'll rough-chop the onion as I thought the slices where a bit challenging to eat altho they look great on the hot dog. I cut back on the salt, plus the hot sauce and cayenne as we are wimpy with hot foods altho we like spicy flavors.

I used EVOO instead of corn oil and I cut back just a touch on the salt. The recipe didn't state what kind of onion to use, I made a judgement call and used an extra large sweet onion. That was the only change I made in this recipe. We had these piled on top of barbequed kielbasa. NO leftovers. This was absolutely fantastic.

Loooved these onions! Spicy and tangy, but not overwhelming. My 4 year old was begging for hot dogs tonight, and since I kept seeing these being raved about on the Buzz, I felt like I HAD to try them. Yum!! A nice way to make an ordinary hot dog a little more fun and interesting. Thanks for the recipe, Lillian!

I put this on brats. Love onions, love these X 10. I'm thinking on hamburgers or maybe in hamburgers, both? My hot sauce was HOT so this had a nice burn. Thanks!

Loved this recipe! Christina (fellow AR buzzer) raves about these onions, so I had to try them. They are every bit as delicious as she recommends! We really liked the zip that the Frank's RedHot Sauce(R) adds to these onions. Very easy to put together and they add so much flavor to the dogs. Thanks Lillian for sharing this recipe. Can't wait to try them on brats and hamburgers.

My wife is not fond of sauteed onion with sauce on her hotdog but this one She approved it and put on her hotdog after she tasted it... I am keeping this and do it again for family gathering coming up soon....

I made these onions according to the recipe. They are wonderfully spicy. I enjoyed them with saurkrout on a boiled hotdog. Thank you LilLian for sharing this simple tasty recipe.

I can't say I've ever eaten a wiener from the hot dog cart w/out enjoying a few hoppy beverages first, so I really don't have anything to, objectively, compare these hot dog onions to. That being said, these are fantastic! I made them this evening to top grilled hot dogs and both Mr. LTH and I really enjoyed them (well, Mr. Sissypants did deem them a little "hot", but that's just because he saw me add the Red Hot)! I stayed true to the recipe w/the exception of subbing EVOO for corn oil (no corn oil) and eliminating the black pepper (gross). These will be a camping staple in the LTH world this summer. THANKS for the great unique recipe, Lillian!!

Pretty good! I've never had onions from a NYC hot dog stand, so I have nothing to compare these to, but I'm confident Lillian hit the nail on the head. :) I'm generally not a fan of grilled onions, but these weren't bad at all. My hubs commented that the spices added a nice kick. To add pizzaz to our weeknight dinner, I purchased poppyseed hot dog buns and Vienna all-beef hot dogs (the "official" Chicago dog of choice). Served with french fries on the side and cream sodas to cure the heartburn (lol), this was a fun, no fuss meal. Thanks Lillian! :-)
