In an iron skillet, pour in 12oz of your favorite beer, or depending on the size of your pan, fill it 3/4 of the way.
Drop a few ViennaBeef Franks in the skillet. Let me warm up and absorb some beer for that extra flavor.
Prep toppings: slice a tomato into 1/2 inch spheres and then split into half. Chop up a white onion and set aside.
Once the hotdogs are warmed up, take them out of the beer bath and set directly on the grill grates for a nice char.
Place a small grate on top of the beer filled skillet and warm up the hotdog buns, plus you'll get some of that evaporating beer into the buns.
Time to assemble the hotdog. Take the warm poppyseed hotdog buns, place the nicely charred hotdog and add the toppings: sliced tomato, chopped onions, mustard, sport peppers, sweet relish, pickle spear and season with celery salt.
