- Layering is Key: When placing the hot dogs in the Instant Pot, arrange them in a single layer to ensure even cooking and flavor distribution.

- Quick Release for Perfect Texture: After the cooking time is up, use the quick release method to maintain the juiciness of the hot dogs and prevent them from becoming overcooked.
