Comments
This is a favorite from my childhood and I’ve been thinking about it ever since we got our first package of hot dogs from Zekiah.  I asked my mom a few questions about how she did things and it was simple enough from there!  I thought they were delicious and Art and Lance were pleasantly surprised too.  Thanks Mom!
