Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 4 large hot dog buns
- 4 large all-beef hot dogs
- 4 slices thin bacon
- ½ large white or yellow onion (sliced thinly)
- 1 roma tomato (chopped into small cubes)
- Mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup, hot sauce (to taste)
- Chiles Toreados
- raw onions (chopped), avocados, whole pinto beans.
Instructions
- 1
Start placing the edge of the bacon on the top of the hot dog and wrap it by overlapping the bacon while going down. This will keep the bacon from opening while you cook it.
- 2
At the bottom of the hot dog, using your finger, tuck in the end of the bacon inside of the bacon itself to secure that edge. If this fails, then you can secure it with a toothpick until you get better at this.
- 3
Cook the onions and hot dogs in a large skillet. Keep rotating the hot dogs until all sides are evenly crispy.
- 4
Right before assembling the hot dog, steam the bun by loosely wrapping them in paper towels (or large ziplock bag) and microwave them for about 7 to 10 seconds. Just enough to get them soft & warm.
