Instructions
- Cook the Hot Dogs: Grill the beef hot dogs over medium heat or boil them in simmering water until they are heated through and cooked evenly, about 5–7 minutes.
- Toast the Buns: Spread butter on each New England–style bun and toast them lightly on a griddle or skillet until golden brown and slightly crispy.
- Assemble the Franks: Place each cooked hot dog inside a toasted bun carefully.

Notes
- Fenway Franks are traditionally served at Boston’s Fenway Park during Red Sox games.
- Optional toppings include chopped onions or sauerkraut for extra flavor.
- For a smoky flavor, grilling the hot dogs is recommended over boiling.
- Use New England–style buns, which are top-split and sturdier for holding condiments.
