Ingredients
1 pound bacon, if you can afford it; chicken or turkey bacon won’t wrap as well. Sorry, a week is only a long time if you are really in dire straits. I guess Superbowl might qualify as dire straits.
1 pound hot dogs (or those little smokey sized dogs, beef, turkey or chicken dogs.)
1 package (1 pound size) brown sugar, or, if you don’t want them as sweet, you can use less brown sugar, or lite if it will thicken.
Directions
Cut the slices of bacon in half. Cut each hot dog into 4 equal sized pieces.
Wrap one half slice of bacon around each piece of the hot dog. Hold in place with a toothpick.
Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the hot dogs (you may have to gently mix them a bit to make sure they all get coated evenly in a crock pot) Place the wrapped hot dogs in the crock pot for about three hours to be sure the bacon is cooked, or in the oven for about 20-25 minutes.
Cover the crock pot and cook on high heat for 3 hours or until the bacon is cooked. Or, if you’re using the oven heat to 400 degrees, and cook for about 20-25 minutes. Enjoy with some ranch dressing, barbecue sauce or nacho cheese sauce. OR have some chili, or mac and cheese ready too. Cole slaw, Potato salad or stuffed mushrooms will work out okay, too. Enjoy.
