Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 8 hot dogs (or Polish sausages)
  • 8 hot dog buns
  • 22 ounces good baked beans (I like Bushes Grillin' Beans)
  • 8 pickled okra (halved lengthwise)
  • 8 strips bacon
  • 1 pound bag southern slaw mix (or shredded cabbage and carrots)
  • 1/4 cup light mayonnaise
  • 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • Salt and pepper
  • Caraway seeds (optional)
  • Hot sauce (optional)

Instruction

  • Preheat the grill to high heat and place a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the bacon in the skillet until crisp, then remove and drain over paper towels.
  • In a medium bowl, mix the mayo, vinegar and sugar together until smooth. Toss in the southern slaw mix to coat. Salt and pepper to taste. If desired add caraway seeds and/or hot sauce to the slaw. Place in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
  • Place the beans in a small pot, then put the pot and the hot dogs on the grill. Grill the hot dogs for 4-6 minutes, turning for even char marks.
  • To serve: Place a hot dog in each bun and wedge a strip of bacon next to it. Top with warm beans, slaw, and two pickled okra halves.
