I wrote this recipe for a Buffalo Wing Style Hot Dog to help out good guy Brett Taylor during his annual fundraiser for Make a Wish, where he will be eating nothing but hot dogs for 2 days for your donations. That said, this hot dog is more than just a forced amalgamation of two comfort food classics, it’s serious food good. Swap the dog for a precooked chicken sausage and suddenly you may not feel so bad about having 4. Let’s eat!
Buffalo Style Hot Dog
It's a hot dog flavored like a chicken wing
Servings 4 hot dogs
Ingredients
- 4 hot dogs (chicken sausage is a chef kiss sub here)
- 1 cup buffalo sauce or hot sauce
- 1/4 cup butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup blue cheese
- 1 cup ranch flavored tortilla chips (yeah, you know the ones)
- 4 brat buns (youll want the heft)
- 1/2 cup pickled jalapenos
Instructions
- Prepare the hot dog however you like them. Personally, I made 6 slits in them, grill them hot and fast, and make sure it's just shy of burnt.
- As dogs cook, lightly toast buns on the grill (or oven or whatever). Also, combine hot sauce, butter, and garlic and microwave on high for 1 minute (covered, unless you want a crime scene in your microwave). Let sit.
- Make some dogs! I would go in this order: bun, dog, sauce, cheese, jalapenos, crushed chips. A side of buffalo sauce for dipping is a good idea. Add on other condiments (ranch, mustard, etc) as you feel so inclined!
