### **Tutorial: How to Make Your Own Oscar Mayer-Style Wienie Bowl**
**What You’ll Need:**
- 12 hot dogs (Oscar Mayer, or your favorite kind)
- 1 mini plastic baseball helmet (cleaned thoroughly)
- 2 cups of baked beans or chili (your choice)
- Shredded cheese (cheddar works great)
- Chopped onions
- Pickle slices
- Mustard, ketchup, relish (optional toppings)
- Crumbled bacon (bonus points)
---
### **Step-by-Step Instructions:**
**1. Prep the Dogs**
- Boil, grill, or pan-fry your hot dogs until cooked through.
- For a Mets-style twist, slice a few of them in half lengthwise so you can layer them better.
**2. Warm the Base**
- Heat up your baked beans or chili in a pot. You want it hot and hearty—this will be your "foundation."
**3. Build the Bowl**
- Place the helmet on a flat surface (you may want to set it in a larger bowl or tray for stability).
- Spoon in your hot baked beans or chili.
- Begin adding your hot dogs one by one, stacking and spiraling them around the bowl.
**4. Add Toppings**
- Sprinkle shredded cheese on top so it melts into the heat of the beans and dogs.
- Add chopped onions, pickle slices, mustard, ketchup, relish—whatever you like.
- Crumble bacon on top for an extra hit of flavor.
**5. Serve & Enjoy**
- Hand everyone a fork (or five).
- This is meant to be messy, fun, and over-the-top—just like a day at the ballpark.
