Here is a slightly different version - Hot Dog Bread.

I would imagine recipe could be modified to use challah dough if you wanted

Hot Dog Bread
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Recipe By: Red Star Yeast

Ingredients:

For Hot Dog Bread

3 1/4 cups bread flour
2 1/4 teaspoons Red Star Active Dry Yeast
2 TBSP sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups water
1 TBSP shortening
1 egg
3/4 lb. hot dogs
margarine, softened

Honey Mustard Sauce

1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon prepared mustard
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 tablespoon lemon juice

Sweet and Spicy Honey Apricot Sauce

1/2 cup chicken broth
1 and 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons apricot preserves
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon chili sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
generous pinch adobo chile pepper or ground red pepper

Directions:

For Hot Dog Bread

In large mixer bowl, combine 2½ cups flour, yeast, sugar and salt; mix well. Add warm water (120-130°F), shortening and egg to flour mixture. Blend at low speed until moistened; beat 2 minutes at medium speed. By hand, gradually stir in remaining flour to make a stiff batter. Cover; let rise in warm place until almost doubled, about 30 minutes.

Stir down batter. Spread evenly in greased 13x9-inch cake pan. Cut hot dogs in half, crosswise; press down into batter. Cover; let rise in warm place until double, about 25 minutes. Bake at 375°F for 25 to 30 minutes until golden brown. Brush with margarine.

Serve warm with mustard or dipping sauce

Honey Mustard Sauce

In a small bowl, whisk all ingredients together. Refrigerate leftovers, tightly covered.

Sweet n Spicy Honey Apricot Sauce

In a small sauce pan, whisk cornstarch into chicken both until combined. Over medium-low heat, stir in the rest of the ingredients and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring frequently, until thickened, about 5 minutes. Refrigerate leftovers, tightly covered

Notes:

You can substitute Instant (fast-rising) in place of Active Dry Yeast in batter/no knead recipes. When using Instant Yeast, expect your batter/dough to rise faster - about 50% faster. Adjust your rise times accordingly. Traditional methods: use equal amounts; Bread Machine: use ½ tsp Instant Yeast OR ¾ tsp Active Dry Yeast per cup of flour in your recipe.

It’s the quickest most simple thing to prepare really and tastes good too.

How is making bread dough and inserting hot dogs complicated? Or more complicated than rolling individual blankets and baking.

Obviously they are different but it seems an odd critique to state that a recipe is complicated when it is pretty basic and requires less prep. Presumably one has the raw bread dough one way or another
