How to Make Blackstone Bacon Wrapped Hot Dogs

Ingredients:

Hot dogs
Bacon
Barbecue sauce
Black pepper
Toothpicks or skewers

Directions:

Step 1: Preheat Your Griddle

Preheat your Blackstone griddle to medium heat. This ensures even cooking and crispy bacon.
Step 2: Wrap the Hot Dogs

Wrap each hot dog with a slice of bacon and secure with a toothpick or skewer. Make sure the bacon is snug around the hot dog for optimal crispiness.
Step 3: Cook on the Griddle

Place the wrapped hot dogs on the griddle and cook for about 8-10 minutes. Turn them occasionally, watching for the bacon to crisp up and the hot dogs to heat through thoroughly.
Step 4: Add Barbecue Sauce

During the last few minutes of cooking, brush the hot dogs liberally with barbecue sauce for an extra layer of flavor. Let it caramelize slightly for a delicious finish.
Step 5: Serve

Remove the hot dogs from the griddle, let them cool slightly, and serve hot. Enjoy the crispy, flavorful combination.

How to Serve Blackstone Bacon Wrapped Hot Dogs

These tasty hot dogs can be served with various sides. Consider pairing them with crispy french fries, coleslaw, or a fresh garden salad. For a fun presentation, set up a hot dog bar with toppings like diced onions, jalapeños, shredded cheese, and more barbecue sauce.

How to Store Blackstone Bacon Wrapped Hot Dogs

If you have any leftovers, store the bacon wrapped hot dogs in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will be good for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them back on the griddle or in a microwave until heated through.

Expert Tips for Perfect Blackstone Bacon Wrapped Hot Dogs

Choose the Right Bacon: Thinner slices of bacon work best for wrapping since they crisp up nicely without being too greasy.
Crispier Bacon: For extra crispy bacon, cook on lower heat initially and increase the heat for the last few minutes.
Skewer Alternatives: If you don’t have toothpicks, a short skewer or even cooking string can hold everything together.
Barbecue Sauce Alternatives: Experiment with different sauces like honey mustard or spicy sriracha, depending on your taste.

Delicious Variations

Cheese-Stuffed Hot Dogs: Before wrapping in bacon, stuff the hot dogs with your favorite cheese for an oozing surprise.
Spicy Version: Use spicy jalapeño hot dogs and add a drizzle of hot sauce instead of barbecue sauce.
Vegetarian Option: Try wrapping plant-based hot dogs in veggie bacon for a meat-free version that’s just as flavorful.
