Ingredients
Scale
- 4 hot dogs
- 1 lb ground beef
- 8 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 4 hot dog buns
- 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional toppings: pickles, onions, jalapeños, ketchup, mustard
Instructions
- Season the Beef: In a bowl, mix ground beef with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Wrap the Hot Dogs: Divide the beef mixture into four portions. Flatten each portion and wrap it around a hot dog, fully covering the dog.
- Grill the Hot Dogs: Preheat your grill to medium heat. Grill the beef-wrapped hot dogs for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking.
- Melt the Cheese: During the last minute of grilling, place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each hot dog and let it melt.
- Toast the Buns: While the cheese melts, toast the hot dog buns on the grill for 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Assemble: Place the grilled hot dogs into the toasted buns. Drizzle with BBQ sauce, sprinkle crumbled bacon on top, and add any optional toppings.
Notes
- Customize this recipe by adding your favorite toppings like jalapeños, pickles, or onions for extra flavor.
- Make sure to grill the beef-wrapped hot dogs over medium heat to ensure the beef cooks through without burning.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated the next day, but they are best enjoyed fresh off the grill.
