1
place ketchup in the serving bowl.
-
2
cut each hot dog in half
-
3
using your pairing knife and the uncut end.. cut out a small piece of the hotdog to resemble a fingernail.
-
4
do this with all 4 pieces.
-
5
reserve the piece u cut out.
-
6
now about halfway down the hot dog piece cut very small curved thin strips out the hot dog.. this will be your knuckle.. the top one will look like a a frown the bottom one a smile and then two small small pieces cut out on the middle of those two.. see photo..
-
7
place frozen dogs and the nails in microwave on a microwave safe plate and heat until fully cooked.
-
8
the cuts in the knuckle with heat of microwave will make them start to curl.
-
9
I do mine for about 1min and 15 seconds... but time may vary depending on wattage of microwave.
-
10
let cool so u can handle them.. use pairing knife and spread a bit of ketchup onto where the nail is.. place your reserved nail on top and press into ketchup to hold.
-
11
do this with all 4 pieces.
-
12
now stand up the hot dogs into the ketchup leaning against side of bowl.. now u have bloody severed fingers for lunch!

( you can also do this with sausages, cocktail weinies.. etc..

hint: I use the microwave method because it causes the hot dog to curl, the skin to peel and the knuckle cuts to spread open more creating a more grusome finger...
