What could be better for a summertime cookout than a build-your-own, “charcuterie-style” hot dog board? Hot dogs are quintessential summer go-to food. So easy to prepare and so darn good to eat. Who doesn’t enjoy a nice juicy hot dog hot off the grill or cooked over the fire?
A “charcuterie-style” hot dog board has everything your family, friends or guests could possibly want to fix themselves a beautiful pure angus beef hot dog. Including some seasonal sweet corn and a bit of potato salad or cole slaw (which is also a great topping for your dog).
Here are suggestions of items we used for our board. You can use/add any of your favorite hot dog toppings.
