Categories main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

Ingredients

8 large hot dogs, preferably 6 to 1s (6 hot dogs to a pound)
8 thin slices bacon, such as Oscar Mayer
4 tablespoons salted butter, at room temperature
8 fresh bolillo rolls, each sliced into a "pocket" to catch all the fillings (see Cook's Note)
1 cup refried beans, warmed
2 avocados, diced
2 firm, ripe Roma tomatoes, diced
1 small red onion, diced
1 cup pickled jalapenos, drained
Zesty Mayo, recipe follows
Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish
Hot sauce, for serving
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon hot sauce
Zest and juice of 1 lime
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

Wrap each dog evenly in 1 slice of bacon. Secure with a toothpick at both ends and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up the bacon and help it adhere.
Heat a grill or grill pan for medium heat. Grill each side of the hot dogs until the bacon is extra crispy but not burnt. It is import to control the heat to insure the hot dogs get properly warmed through and the bacon does not burn or undercook. Set aside.
Butter the outsides of the "pocketed" rolls and gently griddle them until just golden brown.
Layer a schmear of warm refried beans on the bottom of each roll followed by a bacon-wrapped dog. Top with the avocados, tomatoes, onions, jalapenos and a squiggly drizzle of Zesty Mayo. Garnish with some cilantro leaves and serve with your favorite hot sauce.
Combine the cilantro, mayonnaise, hot sauce, lime zest and juice and some salt and pepper in a bowl and whisk until well blended.

There are different variations of this served throughout the southwest. It calls for a bolillo, which is a mexican-style bun. If you're unable to locate these you could substitute it with a bakery-fresh, soft, hot dog bun. You could also use Montery Jack cheese in place of the shredded Mexican cheese if needed.
