Dry Hopped Hot Dogs

Heavens to Mergatroid, say it ain't so!!  A dryhopped hot dog?

Dennis McGuire who runs the blog CraftBeerChef.com has come up with a way to infuse that widely popular hop goodness into a dog. To top it off, he's using one of my all time favorite beers from Bells brewery called Two Hearted Ale.  

His directions are simple: Add 2oz of Centennial Hops, 2 bottles of Bells Two Hearted Ale, and hotdogs in a medium sized pot for 2 hours. Cover in plastic or aluminum foil for 2 hours and place in the refrigerator.  After two hours, remove the hot dogs and add to a new pot. Add 2 new bottles of Bells Two Hearted Ale to the pot.  No hops should be added at this point. Bring beer to a slight boil and add hot dogs.  Boil hot dogs for 10 minutes.  Remove from the pot and serve with or without a hot dog bun.

Spring is here and summer soon after...sounds like a perfect time to give this a try! [Original Link]

These Hot dog instructions do not flow at all. I get how to do it, but you're removing hotdogs that were never added to a pot, placing them in another pot and adding fresh beer. Are there two pots at this point or one with beer and hot dogs? They don't make since in a step by step direction format and will likely confuse a lot of people. Just an FYI. Cheers

I agree--had to read it twice myself. Yes, there are two pots. He says "new" pot at one point and I think assumed you would know to put the hotdogs in. I'll correct that part in my post.

The idea is the 2oz of centennial and two beers you "marinated" with is discarded, I guess because you don't want the hops in there for the 10 minutes boil. Instead, you add two new beers to a new pot and boil the hotdogs for eating.
