Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • Sauce:
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp ketchup
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp bbq sauce (I used Cattlemens Mephis Sweet)
  • 2 Tbsp honey
  • 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp soy sauce
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • Hot Dogs:
  • 8 good quality hot dogs (I used Ball Park Angus Beef Bun Sized Franks)
  • 2 oz sharp cheddar cheese sliced and then cut into thin strips
  • 16 slices of precooked bacon (I used Jimmy Dean fully cooked hickory smoke bacon)
  • 1/4 cup butter melted
  • 8 hot dog buns

Instruction

  • In a small bowl, mix together the sauce ingredients and set aside.
  • Cut a pocket lengthwise in each hot dog.
  • Fill the pockets of each hot dog with a couple of the strips of cheese.
  • Wrap each hot dog with 2 slice of the bacon, using toothpicks to secure the bacon on the hot dogs.
  • Place on the grill cheese side up and cook over medium low heat until the cheese in is nice and melted.
  • While the hot dogs cook, brush inside of the buns with melted butter and place butter side down on the grill. Grill until toasted and golden brown.
  • When hot dogs are fully cooked remove from the grill and remove the toothpick. Serve on the toasted buns along the the sauce you prepared earlier.
