Directions
Gently heat your grill to medium-high and give the grates a light brush of oil to keep things from sticking. In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium-high heat until it’s nice and crispy, then drain it on some paper towels. Place the hot dogs on the grill and cook them for about 5 to 8 minutes, turning once so they get evenly browned and cooked just how you like. While the dogs are grilling, pop the buns on the grill for a quick toast. To put everything together, lay a slice of cheese and some crispy bacon inside each bun, add the hot dog, then finish with a spoonful of barbecue sauce and a sprinkle of red onion. Enjoy!
Serving Guide
Serve with classic condiments like mustard, ketchup, and relish for added flavor. Try pairing with a side of crispy fries or a fresh coleslaw to balance the richness. A cold soda or lemonade makes a great refreshing drink alongside.
How To Preserve This Dish
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave to keep the bacon crisp. Avoid leaving them out at room temperature for too long to maintain freshness.
