BACON WRAPPED SMOKED SAUSAGE DOGS with CHEESE

BACON WRAPPED SMOKED SAUSAGE DOGS with CHEESE

You read that right... BACON... and not just one slice but two thick-cut strips!
 
Now I'm talking some YUM! Seriously, WHO Doesn't ♥ BACON? Is there anything BACON doesn't go with?
Bacon wrapped around a smoked sausage and cooked to perfection. YES!

                                       

These were the perfect dish for a rainy wet day this weekend. Old school with a twist. 

What you get is exactly what you see; a scrumptious bacon sausage, engulfed in creamy melted cheese that crisps up if left long enough... all wrapped in a toasted bun slathered with garlic aoli (or whatever your flavor) & ready when you are! Kids ♥ these - the hubs ♥ these plus they provide a simple twist to the ordinary blah 'hot dog'.
So for two dogs I used: 

• Two smoke sausages
• Four thick-cut bacon slices
• Two hot-dog buns
• garlic infused mayo 
• Asaeero Cheese (Found in the Mexican food aisle)

First, Wrap your sausages with 2 slices of bacon each then cook in a non-stick skillet on  Medium-Low until done. When the dogs are cooked thru, allow to cool before slicing down the center to open (NOT CUT IN HALF). Allowing the dog to cool before cutting should keep the bacon intact so it does not pull away from the dog when cut into.

Toast your buns followed by a healthy layer of your choice of spread, then set aside. I used a garlic infused mayo spread on both sides, & generously too!

While allowing the dogs to cool go ahead and wipe out the pan from the  bacon grease and put two piles of shredded cheese. Allow it to melt and bubble.



Next, lay the opened side of the bacon wrapped dog, face down in the cheese. mix it around so it gets up into and over the dog.
This cheese is like a mozzarella with a buttery flavor but better melt (IMO). Its mild and works perfectly with the smoked sausages.



When you flip this from the pan to the bun don't flip out. It is not burned! Remember, the cheese will crisp/crust. The color doesn't implicate the flavor..
I found the inspiration for this while watching Pati's Mexican Table on OETA. Her recipe included an avocado & jalapeno relish that I omitted; plus I switched up from her hot link to a smoked sausage.



So - in my customary form feast your eyes on yet another #twofer for your taste buds! Mexican inspired Domesticatedly delivered in my own rebellious 'use what I have' style.

There isn't anything not to love in each and every bite!

MmmMmmm Good! Mix it up too! Add some grilled onions or bar-b-Que sauce. Truthfully, if my avocado had been good it would have topped this baby perfectly! TaTah; Time to Enjoy!

Maybe you already have a creation similar?

If you do, drop me a line and let me know!
