Side question: anybody try regular hot dogs? would there be any benefit? maybe I'm just thinking crazy now

I don't think a hot dog would change that much since it's already cooked.
Links are definitely juicier. Texture is, if anything, improved. Searing on cast iron give the brats that snap when you bite into them. Plus there is no danger of overcooking them compared to finishing on the grill.

Not sure where you got 10 hours, Adam. My smilie times 10, maybe?
Cook time was two hours.
