Bacon Burger Dogs

 

My hubby LOVES to BBQ. He is a charcoal loving, meat smoking, multi bbq owning fanatic. ~smile~

I love this about him especially since he makes us amazing food every weekend that weather allows. *wink*

Today he made us Bacon Burgers Dogs. First he seasoned some ground beef, then he flattened out a handful of it making a thin flat circle. Next he put on top a half a juicy jumbo hot dog and rolled up the beef to fully surround the wiener. That done he wrapped each one in bacon. At this point you could sprinkle them with some bbq rub.

 

On to the bbq for about 50 minutes until they test done. Mark did smoke them as well with some mesquite - just a small piece.

Oh my! Are these ever good! So simple and yet so yummy! I have had bacon wrapped hot dogs and bacon burgers and even burgers made entirely of ground bacon but these were next level. We ate them just as they are no bun. Mark put bbq sauce on half and left half plain- both ways were awesome and they would be good on a bun as well but we really didn't miss it.

I heartily recommend everyone try this you would not believe how great they are - I thought I knew what they would taste like but I was wrong. 

Oh in the picture you can just see the ribs he bbq'd as well. I was spoiled for sure today they were super good as well! I was in charge of the salad so a Greek salad rounded out the meal.

Now I am so full I just need to relax for the rest of the evening!

Happy Saturday!
