Deep Fried Bacon, Cheese and Beer Dog
–EAT AT OWN RISK– (This should carry a Surgeon General’s warning)
This recipe was printed in Stuff Magazine but I like this presentation found on The Stanger better. For more pictures click on the link.
The recipe from Stuff Magazine:
BACON, CHEESE AND BEER DOG
Ingredients:
1 hot dog
1 slice of thick-cut bacon
1 can of spray cheese
1 can beer (It doesn’t matter what kind, but we recommend something dark. Corona probably isn’t a good idea)
1 cup flour
Oil for frying
Instructions:
This one is a little work-intensive, so be ready to buckle down. First take the center out of the hot dog with an apple corer, if you have access to one. If not, just cut out the middle with a knife. Fill the cavity with the spray cheese and use the hot dog you removed from the middle as a cap to keep the cheese in. Wrap the bacon around the hot dog and deep-fry for two to four minutes or until bacon is cooked. Dab them dry with a paper towel (so the batter will stick). Mix the beer with the flour until it reaches a thick, but lump-free consistency. Dip the dogs in the batter, coating the dog completely, and deep-fry on high heat for two to three minutes or until brown and deadly.
NOTE: Don’t fry them too long or all of the cheese will explode out into the oil. That’s very bad.

The article also had a link to a Corndog casserole recipe.
Yes I’ve tried both recipes:
The dogs aren’t too bad, but you need a cold beer to wash them down.
The casserole is good enough for me to tweak the recipe a bit and make it again. –More cheese.
No, I’m not skinny. Why do you ask?
