4 servings
20 minutes total

Ingredients

  • Nonstick aluminum foil
  • 4 hot dogs
  • 4 slices bacon
  • 4 top-sliced hot dog buns
  • 1 cup shredded Colby (or Monterey) Jack cheese
  • 1 tablespoon ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 4 spicy (or dill) pickle spears
  • 1 cup sour cream and onion potato chips

Steps

    1. Preheat grill (or grill pan) on medium. Cut bacon into ½-inch pieces (wash hands). Preheat medium, nonstick sauté pan on medium 2–3 minutes; add bacon and cook 5–6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until crisp. Remove from heat, drain, and set aside.
    2. Place hot dogs on grill; cook uncovered 4–6 minutes, turning occasionally, until grill-marked and 165°F. Remove from grill.
    3. Combine mayonnaise and ketchup; spread even amount mixture on inside of each bun. Place hot dogs in buns; top evenly with cheese and bacon.
    4. Wrap buns in foil, leaving cut-side openings exposed. Place hot dog packets on grill over indirect heat; cover and grill 1 minute or until toasted and cheese has melted. Crush chips. Top each hot dog with pickle spear and even amount chips; serve.
