I like them boiled, but S. and my dad always fry them, cut open. And sometimes grill them, I guess, in the summer.
To all of America's crazy people: Can we stop random shootings for awhile?
Seriously.
Xander: I do have Spaghetti-os. Set 'em on top of the dryer and you're a fluff cycle away from lukewarm goodness. Riley: I, uh, had dryer-food for lunch.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Thank you darling Buffistas for the birthday wishes!

Now tagless for your comfort.
I'm going to try the thyroid mess first. Then see what happens from there.

Boiled, with steamed buns.
Om nom nom.
With cheese is a given. In something made with cheese is also canonically appropriate.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I have never cooked a hot dog, because I hate them. My grandmother baked them until they looked like burnt shriveled old man fingers.
I'm sure I've mentioned it before, but my grandmother would boil hot dogs (Note to the spirit of my grandmother: hot dogs come already cooked.) and put them on buns right after breakfast for us to eat at lunch. Weeks of cold hot dogs on wet buns pretty much ruined hot dogs for me.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I cook hot dogs in the toaster oven on Broil.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Is the term frying dependent on there being grease in the pan? It is, right? Then you hot dog friers are disgusting people, who should be heavily penalised for your willful perversions. Ideally you grill/broil it, but you can also heat it in a frying pan of the non stick variety, but no grease.
Boiling is a last resort, but frying is no resort whatsoever.
Full disclosure would indicate I should point out I don't like hotdogs. Still, my opinions should bear weight, because they are correct nonetheless.

Some things, like bacon, make their own grease.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
When I was little, I would take a cold hot dog for lunch. No bun, I think? Maybe I invented low-carb! (Also maybe I had goldfish crackers on the side.)

Hot dogs are excellent cooked in butter! But it's not necessary, really.
