These ``cold Jupiters,'' giant planets residing beyond the snow line ($\\sim$3\\,au), play an important role in the dynamical evolution of the system as a whole. In this work, we investigate the detectability of cold Jupiters around a sample of 28 well-studied Hot Jupiter host stars to estimate the occurrence rate of this distinctive system architecture. We perform extensive simulations using the combination of all publicly available radial velocity (RV) data for those stars with synthetic RV data. The synthetic data test observing strategies along three axes: cadence, duration, and measurement precision. For each scenario, we determine detection limits based on the semi-major axis at which a 1 Jupiter mass planet would be recovered 50\\% of the time. We find the following: 1) the existing RV data are remarkably insensitive to these Hot Jupiter/Cold Jupiter pairs; 2) the total baseline over which an observational campaign is carried out is the dominant factor in our ability to detect cold Jupiters; and 3) the results are relatively insensitive to the individual RV measurement precision. We conclude that metre-class telescopes with lower RV precision are ideally suited to surveying Hot Jupiter-cold Jupiter systems.</summary>\n    <category scheme='http://arxiv.org/schemas/atom' term='astro-ph.EP'/>\n    <published>2026-03-13T02:00:36Z</published>\n    <arxiv:comment>accepted for publication in PASA</arxiv:comment>\n    <arxiv:primary_category term='astro-ph.EP'/>\n    <author>\n      <name>Adriana Errico</name>\n    </author>\n    <author>\n      <name>Robert A.
