My addiction to hot dogs is not a secret. I’ve made them hundreds (it seems) of different ways, from traditional to definitely-not-traditional. A dog and a bun make a great canvas for flavors (I bet no one has ever said that before). Like these nacho hot dogs. They’re really great. I really like the contrast between the beefy dog flavor and the coolness of the guacamole and sour cream, along with the crunchiness of the chips.
These hot dogs have some of my favorite toppings on them (you can add whatever, of course).
Embellish As You Like
I could see adding refried beans. Or black olives. Jalapenos. Chopped tomatoes. Green chiles. You name it. Also try my other variation on nacho hot dogs. Same concept, different toppings.
I recommend making a thin slice down the dogs before cooking them. Not all the way through, but about 1/4″. The slice will open up as the dogs cook. This gives the toppings a place to go. That way they don’t just roll off the dogs!
