Hot Dog Week: The Buffalo Chicken Hot Dog. Only day 1 of 6 of the BEST gourmet hot dog recipes!
“HOT DOG!” (Insert excited voice here)
Yeah yeah, I know hot dogs have been around a while, but they’re by far, one of my favorite quick meals to throw together for a weeknight, or simply warming up for kiddos during a bbq at our house. Even as much as I love my husbands beef tenderloin, any time we cook that for a group, you can usually find me right with the kids, eating a hot dog right along with them.
Now, I love a good plain hot dog. But when you look at it like a blank canvas, the options are ENDLESS. So I’ve compiled 6 hot dog recipes, for this entire week, to give you a good starting point when you want to dress it up a bit! Get ready… each day is FILLED with delicious hot dog goodness. Today, we will start with the “Buffalo Chicken Hot Dog.” Tomorrow… the “BLT.”
