There are hot dogs, and there are HOT DOGS.  This Chili Cheese Dog is definitely the latter.  Loaded with Chili & Cheese, you can’t have just one.

Who knew hot dogs could be a thing? Sure, we all have our family barbecues with franks and frozen patties on the grill. Your weird cousin may put crushed Cheeto’s on his wiener under a pile of coleslaw, but really… It’s just a hot dog…  A classic American staple of summer.

And it just got reinvented.

Haute Dogs by Russell Van Kraayenburg is a collection of the finest sausage concoctions with limitless frankfurter imagination. From down home corn dogs to well traveled weenies inspired by global flavors, Haute Dogs is more than just a novelty book for the casual culinary fan. It’s a serious hot dog cookbook for those looking to step up their summer sizzle.  And for the few brave enough to create their own dogs from scratch, there is even a chapter with quality recipes on stuffing your own sausage. Including fixings, sauces and specialty topping recipes, nothing is overlooked, and many of the recipes are highlighted with stunning photos. Haute Dogs, Recipes for Delicious Hot Dogs, Buns, and Condiments promises to step up your summer sizzler.
