Zippy Barbecue Franks
These franks are the perfect thing to serve for game day, dinner, or lunch! Easy to make and perfect to make ahead and keep warm in the sauce until it time to eat. I added cheese to mine but you can add any number of condiments and toppings to suit you and your family's taste buds. Happy cooking, and happy eating!
