Description

Experience a gourmet hot dog with smoky, spicy, and creamy flavors, topped with a vibrant Firecracker Sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 all-beef hot dogs
  • 8 soft hot dog buns, lightly toasted
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (or pepper jack)
  • ½ cup diced red onions
  • ½ cup sliced jalapeños (optional)
  • Fresh cilantro leaves

Instructions

  1. Make the Firecracker Sauce: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, honey, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and lime juice until smooth.
  2. Prep the Toppings: Dice the red onions, slice the jalapeños, shred the cheese, and chop the cilantro.
  3. Heat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F).
  4. Grill the Hot Dogs: Cook the all-beef hot dogs on the grill for about 5–7 minutes, turning occasionally.
  5. Toast the Buns: In the last 2 minutes, place the buns cut-side down on the grill.
  6. Assemble the Hot Dogs: Spread a layer of Firecracker Sauce inside each toasted bun, add a grilled hot dog, then top with cheese, onions, jalapeños, and cilantro.
  7. Serve Immediately: Enjoy the hot dogs fresh off the grill while everything is bursting with flavor.
