Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 3 tablespoons canola oil

  • 4 yellow onions, thinly sliced

  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt

  • 1/2 cup beef broth

  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

  • 2 tablespoons sherry vinegar

  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, finely chopped, plus more for garnish

  • 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper

  • 1 cup mayonnaise

  • 3 tablespoons Country Dijon mustard

  • 6 Hawaiian or brioche hot dog buns

  • 6 cooked beef hotdogs

  • 2 1/2 cups freshly shredded Gruyere cheese

Directions

  • Arrange a rack to the upper third position of oven. Preheat oven to broil. 


  • Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat until shimmering, about 30 seconds. Add onions, toss until well coated in oil, and cook undisturbed until browned on one side and slightly softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir onions and continue to cook undisturbed until browned on other side, 5 to 7 minutes. 


  • Add salt and broth and cook, making sure to scrape up any brown bits stuck to the bottom of the pan, until most of the liquid is absorbed, about 2 minutes. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, thyme, and black pepper, and cook until fragrant and onions are brown all over, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. 


  • Whisk together mayo and Dijon mustard until smooth; transfer Dijonnaise sauce to a squeeze bottle if desired. 


  • Place hotdog buns on a large rimmed baking sheet. Add a hotdog to each bun, drizzle with prepared Dijonnaise sauce, and top with about 1/3 cup caramelized onions. Sprinkle each hotdog with a generous amount of cheese. 


  • Broil in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and brown, about 2 minutes. Garnish with thyme leaves.
