Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 hot dogs
  • 6 brioche or potato buns
  • 6 pineapple slices (fresh or canned)
  • 1 small red onion, finely diced
  • 2 jalapeños, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 3 tablespoons teriyaki sauce

  3. Brush pineapple slices with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Grill until charred and caramelized on both sides.
  4. Grill the hot dogs until browned and heated through. Toast the buns until golden.
  5. Spread teriyaki mayo on the inside of each toasted bun.

  7. Drizzle with extra teriyaki mayo and garnish with chopped green onions if desired.
  8. Serve immediately while hot and enjoy!

Notes

  • For a milder version, swap jalapeños with sweet bell peppers.
  • Chill the mayo sauce for 10 minutes to thicken before drizzling.
  • Leftover pineapple and sauce can be used in stir-fries or wraps.
