Hot dog buns
Crispy bacon crumbles
Shredded cheddar cheese
Cook the bacon. The best way? In the oven – no grease splatters, easier cleanup and bacon that’s evenly cooked.
Preheat oven to 400°F. On a foil-covered sheet pan, bake for 15–20 minutes, depending on your desired crispiness.
Dry on paper towels. Rough-chop or crumble each strip into medium-sized pieces.
Cook your hot dogs your favorite way. We suggest pan-fried with butter! See how to cook the perfect hot dog.
Assemble your dog! Nestle dog into the bun and generously spoon your tangy BBQ sauce over dog. Top with bacon pieces and a heaping amount of cheese.
