Today we're talking with Executive Chef David Rose, who has some great ideas and tips to really make your barbecue game shine this summer season. We'll be covering how one of the most important aspects of having a great grilling game starts with 'knowing' what you'll be grilling.

Having a freezer full of delicious meats, encompassing seasonal favorites like pork chops, quality hot dogs, and bacon wrapped filet mignons, removes any lingering uncertainty as to the 'what' when it comes to grilling. And that's where Omaha Steaks comes in.

Today, we're showcasing the Gourmet Jumbo Franks, because I don't think anything quite says "Summer Grilling" like quality hot dogs. We'll be dressing up these franks with a jalapeno relish, fresh sliced tomato, plenty of cheddar, and caramelized onions. Grilled watermelon, peaches, and corn to complete the summer seasonal platter.

Why You'll Love Today's Jumbo Franks

1) Keeping it simple. We're grilling, and only grilling. From the grilled watermelon to the franks themselves, everything goes right onto the grill. Everything else is being consumed 'as is.' For example, the jalapeno relish is simply diced jalapenos mixed with relish. This keeps things simple, and 'in the season.'

2) Fun for the Whole Family. Today's franks are delicious for palates of all ages and persuasions. Seriously, this is a crowd pleaser like few others.

3) Experimentation. This recipe is ripe for experimentation. Consider using gouda, oxaca, or mozzarella in place of the cheddar. Consider roasting the jalapenos before mixing them with the relish. Or perhaps blister the tomatoes before piling them onto the franks. Consider dressing up the buns with chili oil before grilling. Seriously get as fancy as you like. These Gourmet Jumbo Franks are worth it.

Ingredient Notes and Tips

1) The Jalapenos - And Your Preferred Heat Level. While I'm using jalapenos, consider spicing things up with hotter chilies, or even toning down the heat in favor of milder peppers. For reference, jalapenos clock in a 'middling' 2,500 to 10,000 units on the Scoville heat scale, jalapenos are best described as 'somewhat spicy.' By contrast, cayenne rates between 25,000 and 50,000 on that same heat scale.

2) The Mustard. Yellow mustard, plain yellow mustard, is what I'm using for today's recipe, and I'm doing so primarily because I think this plays best with the caramelized onions. Now, while I love whole-grain mustard as much as the next gourmet, it would simply be overpower 'everything' on today's franks, including the franks themselves. It really would be 'all' you taste. Thus, plain yellow mustard it is. Trust me…or don't, and if you don't, please let me know in the comments below how it turned out, I love hearing from you!
