5 Weird "Haute" Dog Recipes

by Krishanna 24. July 2009 07:20

Baseball and apple pie aside, nothing says America! more than the legendary hot dog. Though many of us wouldn’t touch one with a ten-foot pole if we knew what was actually in most of of them, hot dogs continue to be a mainstay on our dinner tables, backyard picnics, BBQs, and American culture.

Recently Brynn Mannino over at WomansDay.com compiled a list of ten of the best and admittedly weirdest hot dog recipes around. We have chosen 5 of those to share with you.


Spaghetti Dogs

Spaghettidogs
Not that we have anything against a meal that looks like it was made in the Play-Doh Fun Factory press—we’re just not sure if we would eat it. That said, the creation of this meal is actually not very labor intensive: Simply puncture slices of raw hot dog with uncooked spaghetti noodles and boil.    Photo courtesy of BoingBoing.com


Chinese Hot Dog

Eggrolldogs
At Eden Wok, the glatt kosher Chinese and sushi restaurant in New York City, diners can find egg roll-wrapped hot dogs on the appetizer menu. The hot dog is encased in a sheet of egg-dipped and deep-fried dough—and goes for $2.50. Photo courtesy of Debbie Lee/oneannieatatime.com


The Hamdog

Mulligan’s Bar in Decatur, Georgia, is home of the Hamdog. Herein lies the contents of this creation: One hoagie roll, one hot dog wrapped in a half-pound of beef patty then deep-fried and topped with chili, bacon and a fried egg. Photo courtesy of TexasBurgerGuy.com


The Chihuahua

Chihuaua
Crif Dogs, the popular New York City eatery located in the East Village, is beloved for its variety of wrapped and overloaded franks. This particular culinary explosion contains a hot dog blanketed in bacon then capped with sour cream and avocado. Photo courtesy of Chelsea Peretty/chelseaperetti.blogspot.com


The Cornhole

Cornhole
We’re not entirely sure how you go about eating this, but we can guarantee that the calories consumed are devastating. From the center moving outwards, there is corn on the cob wrapped with hickory bacon, which is then surrounded by alternating hotdog slices and Colby-Jack cheese sticks before being encased in ground beef.
