BACON-WRAPPED CHILI CHEESE DOGS

-Chop up greens, onion, tomato, garlic, and set them aside.

-Preheat smoker to 275°F and gather the hotdogs together side-by-side. Use a sharp knife to cut diagonally from top left to bottom right at about 1/2 apart.

-Lay out 1 piece of bacon per hot dog, fold bacon in half so it’s one long, thin piece, then wrap around the hot dog tight enough to stay on.

-Place bacon-wrapped dogs in the smoker for 1hr. Check every 20 mins to ensure the bacon is still wrapped well around the dog.

-While that smokes, dice up the rest of the bacon and heat up a cast iron skillet. Cook the bacon until crisp, remove, and throw in onions.

-After 4 minutes, add in garlic, set to the side on the skillet, and add in ground beef. Cook all the way, then add in seasonings, cans, tomato, flour, and broth. Let that all simmer for about 10-15 mins all together, stirring occasionally.

-Grate cheese and prep buns during this time. Remove hot dogs and chili. Decorate the dogs by adding chili to the bun, then grated cheese, then dog, then chopped bacon and greens. BITE IN!
