INGREDIENTS
- 1 Package Dempster’s® Original Hot Dog Buns
- 8 jumbo hot dogs
- 8 slices bacon
- 8 large Vidalia or Sweet onions, thickly sliced into rings
- 2 cups (500 mL) shredded aged orange cheddar cheese
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat one side of grill to medium heat. Grease grates well. Wrap each dog with a slice of bacon. Secure with toothpicks. Grill, turning, for 8 to 10 minutes or until bacon is golden and hot dogs are heated through. Remove toothpicks.
- Meanwhile, grill onions for 3 to 5 minutes or until lightly charred and tender. Cut in half.
- Assemble hot dogs in buns and top each evenly with onions and cheese. Return to grill over medium-low heat. Cover and cook over for 1 to 2 minutes or until cheese is melted.
- If serving for less people, divide accordingly.
Tip: For a spicy cheese bacon dog, top with pickled jalapenos.
