RICHLAND CENTER, Wis (WRCO) – Do you have the HUNGER? Do you have a couple of bucks and some old yet NOT crusty condiments in the fridge (or shelf)? Hank can feed YOU!

Hank’s Legendary “Microwave Gourmet” Hot Dog Surprise

Ingredients:

  • 1 hot dog (preferably not expired)
  • 1 slice of bread (because who keeps buns?)
  • 1 squirt of whatever condiment isn’t crusty
  • 3 shredded chips (for “texture”)

Instructions:

  1. Place hot dog on a microwave-safe plate (or just a paper towel if you live on the edge).
  2. Microwave for 45 seconds or until it explodes slightly.
  3. Carefully place it on your fancy bread bun—aka a folded slice of white bread.
  4. Squeeze on some mystery sauce from the fridge.
  5. Crush 3 chips over the top for that gourmet crunch.
  6. Take a bite and question your life choices.

BONUS: Pair with a flat soda for the full experience.

HANK: “There you have it, folks! A meal so quick, even a fork would be confused!”
