6 all beef hot dogs
1 can (12 ounce size) beer
6 hot dog buns, split and toasted if desired
Pour the beer slowly into a deep skillet. Bring the beer to a boil over high heat.
Carefully poke each hot dog with a fork to lightly prick it. Place the hot dogs in the beer and let cook at a boil for 5 minutes or until the hot dogs are heated through. Poking them with the fork keeps them from splitting open. If you use jumbo hot dogs they make take longer than 5 minutes to heat through.
