Here's a juicy, delicious and savory meal in a bun! I make these bacon-wrapped hot dogs for picnics, barbecues and tailgate parties, and they always get compliments. To transport, wrap the hot dogs in foil and then in paper. -Peter Halferty, Corpus Christi, Texas

THE RICO - BACON WRAPPED HOT DOG



The Rico - Bacon Wrapped Hot Dog image

Saw this made on The Cooking Channel's show Eat St. The recipe is from the Bacon Mania Truck and I knew I had to try it the minute I saw it. Bacon is my kryptonite! The unusual part of this recipe is that the bacon wrapped dog is deep fried. I'm sure I'll have to eat a week's worth of fruit and veggies to make up for this one recipe, but it's worth it! After making the recipe myself, I have tweaked the recipe to better suit my preferred method of preparation and my family's taste.

Time 38m

Yield 3-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

18 slices hickory smoked bacon
3 jalapenos, sliced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
3 small onions, sliced (yellow or sweet onion recommended)
2 teaspoons sugar (optional)
12 slices center-cut bacon (Applewood smoked recommended)
6 frankfurters
1 -2 tablespoon margarine (or butter)
6 hot dog buns (gourmet seeded bun recommended)
3/4 cup sour cream (can substitute mayonnaise or plain yogurt)
3 teaspoons dried chipotle powder
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 limes, Juice of
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Dice the hickory smoked bacon and fry in a large skillet until lightly crisp. Remove bacon bits to paper towels and set aside. Reserve about 1 Tablespoon of grease in the pan.
  • In the same skillet, over medium (or lower) heat, add the jalapeno slices and saute until soft and dark, about 8 to 10 minutes.
  • In another large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the onions, stir to coat, and saute until soft, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the sugar and stir to coat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until caramelized, about 20 minutes. If the onions begin to burn, reduce heat and add a Tablespoon of water.
  • While the onions are caramelizing, make the sauce by combining all the sauce ingredients and mixing well.
  • Spiral 2 slices of the uncooked bacon around the entire length of each hot dog, until it's completely covered. Secure with toothpicks.
  • Heat a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F. and fry the hot dogs until the bacon is cooked, about 2-1/2 to 3 minutes. (Note: I found that frying one at a time was all my deep fryer could handle without boiling over. But they cooked very quickly so it wasn't an inconvenience.).
  • While the hot dogs are cooking, spread the inside of each bun with a little margarine or butter and put on a cookie sheet. Broil in oven for 2-3 minutes, or until just lightly browned and toasted.
  • To Serve: Spread some Spicy Chipotle Sauce on the bun. Add some jalapenos, a hot dog, and some caramelized onions. Squeeze on some more sauce and top with a sprinkle of the reserved bacon bits.
