I love mushrooms on a burger, so why not load up a hot dog with tons and tons of sauteed mushrooms and a good helping of Swiss cheese? These Alpine hot dogs combine great mushroom flavor with yummy all-beef hot dogs and great creamy nutty Swiss cheese. Every bite is delicious. These hot dogs are different and that makes them extra special. As much as I love traditional hot dogs, with just mustard, sometimes I want something that’ll really wow me instead! Well, here I am… wowed!
Mushrooms And Hot Dogs Are Meant For Each Other
Beefy dogs and beefy mushrooms go together perfectly. I would definitely recommend bigger, juicier, fatter dogs. You could even go with a smoked sausage or Polish sausage. Just don’t use a dog with ‘weird’ extra flavors (like say, jalapeno) that might fight the toppings!
And don’t be tempted to add mustard to these Alpine hot dogs. They stand on their own. No condiments needed. Nothing. Resist the temptation! Trust me, you don’t need them. They’ll hide the wonderful combination of flavors.
Also try my bacon-wrapped hot dogs with Fire-Eater sauce. They’re crazy good too!
