Number Of Ingredients 13

2 lb extra lean ground beef
1/4 c onions finely chopped or 1 tablespoon onion flakes
1 large egg
1 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
1/8-1/4 tsp garlic powder or one clove fresh garlic
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/8-1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional-most of my family does not like spicy!)
6-8 hot dogs
6-16 natural bacon slices (1-2 slices per b.b.dog)
1/2 c barbecue sauce (your favorite)
6-8 hot dog buns or steak rolls
cheddar cheese and/or condiments of your choice

Steps:

1. Blend first 7 ingredients by kneading them together.
2. Using a bit more than 1/2 cup of the beef mixture, patted into a rectangle, wrap each hot dog. Cover it completely so that it looks like a cylinder.
3. Wrap bacon around the outside of the burger dog. If using thinly sliced bacon, I would recommend using two slices.
4. Grill the bacon burger dogs until the beef mixture is thoroughly cooked (well done). Be careful to turn them and cook well on all sides.
5. When cooked completely, brush with bbq sauce to your taste.
6. Serve on buns or rolls with extra bbq sauce, a slice of cheddar cheese, or other condiments of your choosing.
7. Enjoy!
