Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

4 large hot dog buns
4 large all-beef hot dogs
4 slices thin bacon
½ large white or yellow onion (sliced thinly)
1 roma tomato (chopped into small cubes)
Mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup, hot sauce (to taste)
Chiles Toreados
raw onions (chopped), avocados, whole pinto beans.

Steps:

Start placing the edge of the bacon on the top of the hot dog and wrap it by overlapping the bacon while going down. This will keep the bacon from opening while you cook it.
At the bottom of the hot dog, using your finger, tuck in the end of the bacon inside of the bacon itself to secure that edge. If this fails, then you can secure it with a toothpick until you get better at this.
Cook the onions and hot dogs in a large skillet. Keep rotating the hot dogs until all sides are evenly crispy.
Right before assembling the hot dog, steam the bun by loosely wrapping them in paper towels (or large ziplock bag) and microwave them for about 7 to 10 seconds. Just enough to get them soft & warm.
Place the hot dog in the bun.
Add about 1 tablespoon of cooked or raw onions.
Add about 2 tablespoons of chopped tomato.
Spread some mayonnaise a over the tomatoes and press lightly to blend the tomatoes with the mayo. Add mustard, ketchup & hot sauce if you like.

Categories main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

Ingredients

8 large hot dogs, preferably 6 to 1s (6 hot dogs to a pound)
8 thin slices bacon, such as Oscar Mayer
4 tablespoons salted butter, at room temperature
8 fresh bolillo rolls, each sliced into a "pocket" to catch all the fillings (see Cook's Note)
1 cup refried beans, warmed
2 avocados, diced
2 firm, ripe Roma tomatoes, diced
1 small red onion, diced
1 cup pickled jalapenos, drained
Zesty Mayo, recipe follows
Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish
Hot sauce, for serving
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon hot sauce
Zest and juice of 1 lime
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

Wrap each dog evenly in 1 slice of bacon. Secure with a toothpick at both ends and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up the bacon and help it adhere.
Heat a grill or grill pan for medium heat. Grill each side of the hot dogs until the bacon is extra crispy but not burnt. It is import to control the heat to insure the hot dogs get properly warmed through and the bacon does not burn or undercook. Set aside.
Butter the outsides of the "pocketed" rolls and gently griddle them until just golden brown.
Layer a schmear of warm refried beans on the bottom of each roll followed by a bacon-wrapped dog. Top with the avocados, tomatoes, onions, jalapenos and a squiggly drizzle of Zesty Mayo. Garnish with some cilantro leaves and serve with your favorite hot sauce.
Combine the cilantro, mayonnaise, hot sauce, lime zest and juice and some salt and pepper in a bowl and whisk until well blended.
