    I use a very similar recipe but instead of cooking the hotdogs in the marinade the recipe a use calls for boiling the carrots in water and then marinating them for several hours. I usually marinate overnight. Then you can cook them in a skillet, oven or on a grill and just keep basting them as you did. I think it gives a little more flavor.

    Hi Brian hi Jessica I know this is probably an old video but I made these hot dogs oh my goodness I am shocked how I turned a carrot into the most delicious dog ever. They even taste better than the hot dogs themselves . These carrot dogs are unbelievable delicious just unbelievable 😋 yum yum

    Your carrots to big. Do smaller regular sizes. You can poke tiny holes to help infuse them. You don't need tge syrup and garlic powder wworks just fine also. Add paprika, papper, nutmeg. Instead of veg broth or your cubes( way to much sodium) can take a package of low sodium beef/brown, chicken or even Turkey GRAVY package and mix just 1/4 the package with a little water. After instant pot. Put in fry pan and put carrots and add the leftover juice marinade and let it simmer and stick to it. You can chop onions etc, toss in while pan fry to let the leftovers infuse & stick to them .( only until leftovers brine all brown on the carrots. Leave skin on carrots for that regular hot dog skin it mocks. You can use shaved chopped carrots as a healthy substitute for bread coating for chicken nuggets also. Will need to air fry. No oil needed.

    Yum! We were thinking we would get rid of our grill since we don't eat meat anymore. But, we will definitely try this. My 7 year old never liked meat except the really bad stuff, like hot dogs and sausage. Lol.

    Awesome recipe! I don't have an instapot and lack the patience to let it marinade for hours. So I simmered the "dogs" in the marinade until they were cooked! I haven't tried grilling them yet, but looks promising!

    I’ve only been watching your videos for a couple of months, so this may be “old hat” to you, but since I haven’t seen you do it I thought I would mention it. Baba ghanouj. I know you like hummus, but baba ghanouj is a whole ‘nother thing. I found that by playing with the ingredients I can make a really nice substitute for mayonnaise/sandwich spread. This is wonderful because I love chickpea salad. If you’ve never tried chickpea salad, just take a can of chickpeas, squash them up but leave them chunky, add minced celery and onion, your “mayonnaise,” a little lemon juice or cider vinegar, a pinch of sugar or other sweetener to balance out the acidity, and salt and pepper to taste if desired. It is a marvelous substitute for chicken salad. You can put it on bread and make a sandwich, make a wrap, just serve it on the lettuce, or stuff other vegetables with it, like mushrooms. You can dress up this chickpea salad and even make it quite elegant with the addition of fresh herbs, diced apple or grapes. I like what you’re doing. Keep up the good work!

    I also add smoked paprika and cumin powder. After boiling I like to let them sit in the fridge for a couple days and the flavor really intensifies. The leftover juice makes great mashed potatoes and if you marinade the little carrot parts you can make beans and carrot weenies!
