They are great to do before s'mores, then you know that the scouts have had something other than sugar before bed.

hot dogs (the kind that come 8 or 10 in a pack)

PREPARATION:

• You'll need a knife and some roasting forks or sticks. Cut the ends of each hot dog into quarters leaving about 1-1/2 to 2 inches in the middle uncut. You want to leave enough uncut to stick the fork in.

• Roast the dogs over the fire or hot coals in a grill. The "legs" will curl out as the hot dogs cook. You can also do them in the kitchen at home over a hot stove burner.

• Servings: as needed
  Preparation time: 10 minutes
