Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Wash and dry produce. 

  • Dice potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Trim and thinly slice scallions. Roughly chop pickle. 

Make Potato Salad
2
  • Place potatoes in a medium pot with enough salted water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, 10-12 minutes. 

  • Drain, then rinse potatoes under cold water to cool. Shake off any excess water, then transfer to a large bowl.

  • To bowl with potatoes, add scallions, two packets of mayonnaise, and one packet of mustard (for 8 servings, use four packets of mayonnaise and two packets of mustard). Stir until thoroughly combined. Season with salt (we used ½ tsp; 1 tsp for 8) and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Grill Hot Dogs & Warm Buns
3
  • Heat a grill (or grill pan) to medium high. 

  • Once grill (or grill pan) is hot, add hot dogs; grill, turning occasionally, until warmed through and lightly charred all over, 4-6 minutes.

  • Meanwhile, wrap hot dog buns in foil. Add to grill (or grill pan) and cook, turning occasionally, until warmed through, 2-4 minutes. TIP: Depending on the size of your grill or grill pan, you may need to wait until hot dogs are done to warm the buns—transfer hot dogs to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm.

Finish & Serve
4
  • Transfer ketchup, pickle, crispy fried onions, cheddar, remaining mayonnaise, and remaining mustard to small serving bowls. 

  • Once hot dogs and buns are done, fill buns with hot dogs so everyone can add toppings as they like. Serve with potato salad and chips.

I am so happy that I ordered this meal. The hot dogs were delicious, as was the potato salad. It felt like I was at a picnic. Even the chips were good.

This is the first time I got hot dogs through Hello Fresh and they were pretty darn good! Also gave me a chance to break out my grill pan, and the potato salad was wonderful!

The flavored mustard was a winner 🏆 No fillers in the hotdogs. Chips were fresh and crispy! Where can I order them again?

I finally put together a new charcoal grill I was gifted just to make this. It was a real treat. Even though my father passed away a number of years ago, we still celebrate him every chance we get and he would have loved these dogs just as much as we did.

Way better than I thought. I definitely wish it was not a big batch. I didn't need that. But the potato salad surprised me the most. It was really good with the mustard.

Perfect Father's Day dinner. The potato salad was my favorite.

The hot dogs were tiny, too thin to grill, and not very satisfying. Condiment array was too limited and simplistic. Bun came squashed due to being crammed into the dinner bag with no protection. Potato Salad was good. More imaginative condiments like the seasoned mustard would help, but the skinny little wienies were pathetic and the plain potato chips were a let down.
