The ultimate hot dogs are Loaded BBQ Bacon Hot Dogs. Make these once and you’ll never go back to regular ones.
Perfect Loaded BBQ Bacon Hot Dogs…Perfect Grill Day!
Without a doubt, I just love grilling season and I love America for it. Ever since moving here, I have got so into grilling. It’s unlike anything else for relaxed cooking vibes. I do not own a big house but I have a little grill on my balcony here in Los Angeles and it works just fine. The one I have is in fact from Weber grills. Here is the link for it. But there are loads of great options around.
So if you love grilling as much as I do, you’re going to want an amazing hot dog recipe up your sleeve. This one is just so full of flavor. However it’s not a complicated recipe so it won’t ruin the joy and simplicity of a grill day! So guys, fire up that grill, get outside, and basically make the most of those perfect summer days. But remember…going back to a regular hot dog won’t be easy after these! Indeed, you have been warned!
Tips for cooking the perfect hot dog:
- Bring to dogs to room temperature before cooking so they cook evenly. Then I like to cook my dogs on the grill for about 6-7 minutes each side.
- Once in a while, try and look for some gourmet hot dogs out there. Believe me, overall they taste a whole lot better. And they are sometimes surprisingly good value.
- Make a double batch of this BBQ sauce and keep it for some delicious ribs later. You can try my BBQ Ribs recipe here and just use this sauce.
- Whenever you can, try some Brioche hot dog buns. They are rather buttery and delicious.
