Looking for a twist on your boring hot dog meal, then why not try wrapping it in bacon? It is a slightly longer prep time than a normal plain hotdog but totally worth the effort.

Ingredients

  • 8 slices bacon
  • 8 hot dogs
  • 1/2 cup favorite BBQ sauce
  • 1/4 cup apple juice

Equipment

  • 16 tooth picks, optional

Directions

  • Using a toothpick, secure a slice of bacon on one hot dog.
  • Firmly wrap around the hot dog, then using another toothpick, secure the other end. Repeat with the remaining bacon and hot dogs.
  • Combine the BBQ sauce and apple juice in a cup to create a glaze.
  • Over a moderately warm preheated grill, add the bacon-wrapped hot dogs. Cook, turning as required until heated through and the bacon is cooked, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Glaze the whole hot dog then cook for 3 minutes, turn, glaze again then cook for another 3 minutes.
  • Remove all the toothpicks, then serve.
