Canning - Peppers & Hot Dogs

This past Saturday, I put up 13 quarts of hot dogs and hot peppers. Here's the recipe for ya.

1 gallon hot peppers ( I use Hungarian wax peppers)
1 cup vegetable oil
2 cups sugar
2 cups vinegar
2 30 oz bottles of catsup
7 packs of hot dogs (or more)
1 tbs salt


  1. Cut peppers in rings. I leave the seeds in for extra spice but you can remove them if you don't want the extra heat 
  2. Cut the hotdogs into bite size pieces 
  3. Mix all ingredients, except peppers, in a large bowl 
  4. Cook at medium heat to a boil. Stir often to keep from sticking 
  5. Let boil for 5 or so minutes, then add peppers 
  6. Cook just long enough for peppers to start to wilt then fill your jars and seal 
  7. Usually the jars will seal on their own as they cool but you can do a hot water bath for about 20 minutes if you're concerned about the seal
