• Add hot dogs to slow cooker and pour sauce over. Stir to evenly distribute the sauce. Cook on high heat for about 2 hours (don't discard the sauce-- you may want to pour extra over your hot dogs before eating).
• Remove hot dogs from slow cooker and grill on medium-high heat for about 2 minutes or so on each side or until desired doneness (I like mine just to have light grill marks).
• Add hot dogs to hot dog buns and top with desired toppings and extra sauce.
