Ingredients

• 4 pieces Hot dog franks
• 1 cup Canned baked beans
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 4 pieces Hot dog buns or small sandwich rolls
• 2 tablespoons Yellow mustard
• 2 tablespoons Ketchup
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 tablespoon Chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat a skillet over medium heat.

Step 2

Slice the hot dog franks into thin rounds, about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 3

Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet and allow it to melt.

Step 4

Sauté the sliced hot dog franks in the skillet for 3-4 minutes, or until they are lightly browned and heated through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add the baked beans and cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thoroughly heated.

Step 6

Return the sautéed franks to the skillet with the beans, stirring to combine. Add the mustard and ketchup, and continue to cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 7

Butter the inside of each hot dog bun or sandwich roll with the remaining tablespoon of butter.

Step 8

Toast the buns in a clean skillet or on a griddle over medium heat until golden brown and slightly crisp, about 2 minutes per side.

Step 9

Spoon the beans and franks mixture evenly onto each toasted bun.

Step 10

Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top of each sandwich. The heat from the filling will slightly melt the cheese.

Step 11

Garnish with chopped parsley if desired. Serve immediately.
