Follow The Directions

01

Step

Gather all ingredients and prepare your workstation. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Wrap each hot dog with a slice of bacon, ensuring the entire dog is covered. Secure the bacon with toothpicks. (10 minutes)

03

Step

Place the wrapped hot dogs in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the bacon to adhere. (30 minutes)

04

Step

Heat vegetable oil in a deep-fryer or large, heavy-bottomed saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Ensure there is enough oil to fully submerge the hot dogs. (10 minutes)

05

Step

Carefully place the bacon-wrapped hot dogs into the hot oil, working in batches to avoid overcrowding the fryer. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Fry for 2 to 5 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and golden brown, and the hot dog is heated through. (5 minutes)

07

Step

Remove the fried hot dogs with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. (2 minutes)

08

Step

Remove toothpicks and serve immediately in toasted hot dog buns. Top with your favorite condiments and enjoy!

For best results, use thick-cut bacon that will crisp up nicely during frying.
Be careful when adding the hot dogs to the hot oil, as the oil may splatter.
Do not overcrowd the fryer, as this will lower the oil temperature and result in soggy bacon.
If you don't have a deep-fryer, you can also fry the hot dogs in a large skillet with about 1 inch of oil.
Experiment with different toppings to create your own signature bacon-wrapped hot dog.
