Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces hot dog buns
- 4 pieces spicy beef or pork sausages
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 pieces jalapeño peppers
- 1 medium, sliced thinly red onion
- 4 slices pepper jack cheese
- 2 tablespoons hot sauce
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
- 8 pieces pickle slices
- 1 cup crushed tortilla chips
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium heat.
Slice the jalapeño peppers thinly and carefully remove seeds for a milder spice level, if desired.
Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a small skillet over medium heat and sauté the sliced jalapeños and red onion until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise and sriracha sauce until well combined. Set aside as your spicy mayo.
Butter the inside surfaces of the hot dog buns with the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Place them on the grill for 1-2 minutes to toast lightly, then set aside.
Grill the sausages on the preheated grill, turning occasionally, until cooked through and nicely charred, about 8-10 minutes.
During the last 1-2 minutes of grilling, place a slice of pepper jack cheese on each sausage so it melts slightly.
Spread the spicy mayo evenly inside the toasted buns.
Place the grilled sausage in the bun and top it with the sautéed jalapeños and onions.
Drizzle a bit of hot sauce over each hot dog for extra heat.
Add pickle slices and a sprinkle of crushed tortilla chips for crunch.
Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving. Enjoy your fiery 'Hot Hot Dogs'!
