Uses for Leftover Hotdog and Hamburger Buns

December 7, 2009

Uses for Leftover Hotdog and Hamburger BunsI was clear out of garlic bread to go with my spaghetti, so I used split hot dog buns to make garlic toast. I slathered on the butter, sprinkled heavy with garlic powder and placed it under the broiler til toasted. Turned out very good.

Split leftover hot dog buns down the middle, spread each side with garlic butter and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Toast in the oven and you have breadsticks for dinner.

A peanut butter and jelly sandwich is much less messy on a hotdog bun. Try it and see if I'm right!

I have been given a lot of hamburger and hot dog buns. I passed on as many as I could give away. I have made bread crumbs, croutons, cinnamon toast, and dried bread cubes for stuffing, as well as bread pudding, and I have used them for sandwiches of all kinds. Does anyone have any more suggestions? I sure do appreciate it.

We toast them in the oven with butter and a little garlic powder on top to go with our spaghetti.

I wonder if they would freeze well coated in the garlic butter for Italian food sides? Just defrost a bit and toast in the oven.
And they will make some good bird food! Got any bird feeders?

Cheap Carp Bait

4 slices white bread
1 cup cottonseed meal
3 Tbsp imitation vanilla extract (don't use your wife's real vanilla extract its really expensive). In a medium bowl, combine bread, cottonseed meal with vanilla flavoring. Kneed and roll into a ball. The bait will be similar texture to bread dough. Store the bait ball in zip lock bag in the refrigerator. When you are ready to fish, pinch off enough bait to cover a #12 treble hook.

With milk and eggs with the bread in the blender, and you can make it into pancakes or waffles. Also, don't forget French toast.

Make filled buns
2 dozen hot dog buns
1 1/2 lb of velveta
2 4 oz cans chopped black olives
1 4oz can diced green chilies
2 chopped onions
3 chopped hard boiled eggs
1 can diced pimentos
2 cloves garlic minced
1 jar, chili sauce

Mix together and put on buns, wrap in foil. Cook at 350 F. in the oven until hot inside. Very good. Better than they look. I won't tell you what my daughter calls them. But she loves them. They freeze very well. We used to take them camping and cook on the fire.

Uhh how about using them for hot dogs and hamburgs? I freeze mine because I live alone. When ready to use I just wrap one in a paper towel and thaw in the microwave on high for about 15 seconds.

This was sent to me by a person that lives in New Jersey - supposedly the original recipe. I have made it before but I would cut the cloves, allspice and cinnamon in half (just my preference, you can always add them in later) - it wasn't a bad hot dog sauce just a little different (fresh or stale hot dog buns don't matter).

Johnny & Hanges Hot Dog Sauce Recipe

8 cups of water
1 pound of ground beef
1 6oz. can tomato paste
1 Tbsp. chili powder
1 tsp. ground cloves
1 tsp. allspice
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
8 hot dog rolls

I hope you have a wire whisk and a food processor, put 8 cups of water in a pot next put a little can of tomato paste and whisk until it's incorporated in the water. Next put the ground beef in the cold tomato water, yes I said cold water and whisk until it breaks up into very small pieces, then turn on the gas to med. setting bring to a boil turn down to a
simmer, now put in the spices.

Take the hot dog rolls put them in the food processor one at a time, break them up as you are putting them in the processor on high make soft bread crumbs, put the crumbs a little at a time in to the simmering mixture and whisk. It will take a little time but if you don't it will lump up on you and you will have a mess.

Please use fresh hot rolls only, do not use any other type of bread crumbs, the spices can and should be adjusted to your taste. Serve with mustard and chopped white onions, this can be done in a food processor by pulsing in the processor.

stratta - depression cooking found some wonderful youtube videos on how to do it

Basic idea is like a layered quiche

Day old crusty bread - torn into bite size pieces - I mostly use the bread loaf butt ends because my kid refuse to eat them (let them get hard and crusty on the counter or uncovered in fridge). Any and all veggies you want to use
spice to your liking. I just use garlic/onion powder or Italian blend
egg mixture

do layers of bread then veggies (like lasagna)
pour egg mixture all over
set heavy pan over eggy bread to weigh bread down to soak up egg mixture for about 20 min

bake

I can barely keep the leftovers in the house.

I always have a lot of extra buns left over because hot dogs come in packs of 10 and buns in packs of 8. To use those extra buns, I made garlic bread on them, because I was out of bread.

I always have leftover hot dog buns and/or hamburger buns, especially during BBQ season. Leftover buns make great French toast sticks for breakfast (use with your typical French toast recipe). They also make great garlic bread sticks.

As I was cleaning out my freezer, I found one hot dog bun in the back. I usually make bread crumbs with it. Someone on one of my Facebook groups suggested making French toast with it. It was a great use of it.
