For extra flavor, consider brushing the hot dogs with a little bit of barbecue sauce during the last minute of grilling. If you don't have a grill, you can cook the hot dogs in a skillet or boil them. Experiment with different types of cheese, such as cheddar, pepper jack, or provolone. Add a sprinkle of chili powder to the barbecue sauce for a kick of heat.
