Jalapeno Popper Bacon Wrapped Hot Dog


  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 hot dogs
  • 4 slices bacon (not thick-cut)
  • 4 hot dog buns
  • 1 (8 ounce) package Philadelphia cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 to 1/2 cup shredded cheddar and/or monterey jack cheese
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped pickled jalapenos
  • 1 (8 ounce) container ranch dressing
  • 1 avocado
  • 3 tablespoons barbecue sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Tightly wrap 1 slice bacon around each hot dog, tucking in ends of bacon slices to secure.
  3. Grill over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until bacon is cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Remove to a paper towel lined plate.
  4. Meanwhile, mix together cream cheese, shredded cheese, and pickled jalapenos in a small bowl until fully combined.
  5. In a small food processor, thoroughly combine avocado and 1/2 cup ranch dressing until smooth. With the remaining 1/2 cup ranch dressing, combine in a small bowl with barbecue sauce.
  6. Assemble by evenly smearing jalapeno popper mixture in each bun, topping with bacon wrapped hot dog, and drizzle with both the avocado ranch and barbecue ranch sauces.
  7. Devour immediately.
