Nothing says summer quite like hot dogs! These Loaded Hot Dogs taste amazing and are still really simple to make.  We're highlighting a bacon-wrapped loaded hot dog piled high with toppings and drizzled with our sweet and spicy Pace® Hot Honey Chipotle Signature Sauce but we've included additional loaded hot dog recipe variations in the "Tips" section below!

Wrap strips of bacon around hot dogs and secure with wooden picks (at the ends so you can turn them in the skillet).  Fry until the bacon is crisp, then toast the buns in the bacon drippings.  Drizzle with a mixture of Pace® Hot Honey Chipotle Sauce and mayo, then top with queso fresco, avocado and pickled onion.  The combo of bacon, hot dogs and our sweet spicy Signature Sauce is perfect. Run, don't walk, to make this recipe now!

Ingredients

  • 4 hot dog
  • 4 slices bacon
  • 4 top-sliced hot dog bun
  • 2 tablespoons Pace® Signature Sauces Hot Honey Chipotle Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup crumbled queso fresco
  • 1 small avocado, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup store-bought or homemade sliced pickled red onion

Instructions

  • Tips

    • Loaded Hot Dog Variations
    • For Bacon-Wrapped Loaded Hot Dogs with Pineapple Onion Salsa, saute 1 cup each chopped pineapple and sliced red onion in nonstick skillet over medium-high heat for 8 minutes or until tender.  Stir in 3 tablespoons pineapple juice.  Remove from heat.  Stir in 2 tablespoons each Pace® Hot Honey Chipotle Sauce and chopped cilantro.  Prepare 8 bacon-wrapped hot dogs as shown above (omit the toppings), top with the pineapple salsa and more chipotle sauce.
    • For "Animal-Style" Loaded Hot Dogs, mix 2 tablespoons each Pace® Hot Honey Chipotle Sauce, mayonnaise and dill pickle relish.  Toast 4 hot dog buns and place 1 slice American cheese on each.  Top with 4 cooked hot dogs, shredded lettuce and chopped white onion.  Drizzle with the sauce mixture.
    • For Hot Honey Chipotle Coleslaw Loaded Hot Dogs, mix 2 cups coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots), 2 tablespoons ranch dressing, 2 tablespoons Pace® Hot Honey Chipotle Sauce and 1 tablespoon lime juice.  Place 4 cooked hot dogs on 4 toasted buns spread with 1 teaspoon additional chipotle sauce each.  Top with 1 cup potato chips and the coleslaw mixture and drizzle with more chipotle sauce.

  • Step 1

    Wrap 1 slice bacon around each hot dog, securing at both ends with wooden picks (placing the picks at the ends of the hot dogs makes it easier to turn them during cooking).

  • Step 2

    Heat a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat.  Add the wrapped hot dogs and cook for 5 minutes or until the bacon is crisp on all sides, turning often.  Remove the hot dogs from the skillet and remove and discard the picks.  Leave the bacon drippings in the skillet.

  • Step 3

    Reduce the heat to medium-low.  Place the hot dog buns, flat-side down, into the drippings in the skillet.  Cook for 2 minutes or until golden-brown, turning over once halfway through the cooking time.

  • Step 4

    Stir the sauce and mayonnaise in a bowl.  Spread 1 tablespoon mixture inside each roll.  Place the hot dogs in the buns and top with the queso fresco, avocado and onion.  Drizzle with additional sauce, if desired.
