Let’s agree that bacon is amazing. And bacon wrapped anything is again, pretty amazing. What about all beef hot dog wrapped in bacon then drizzled with a vinegary BBQ sauce? CAN ANYTHING GET MORE AMAZING? Try these Memphis Hot Dog and see.
For another Sunday Supper I actually made Michigan Hot Dogs and as I mentioned, they are not really from Michigan! I also realized there are so many different types of hot dogs! One that looks especially good are these Memphis hot dogs. Not only is it wrapped in bacon it’s also a specialty of a place that I really enjoy visiting.
My husband and I visited the Memphis/Tunica area this March for a small trip before we moved into our new house. While traveling my husband loves to visit area Costco’s. I keep joking that he needs to get a punch card of locations so that he can mark them off his bucket list. What was really exciting though was right next to the Costco was….a Brand New IKEA! It was kismet considering that in just a few weeks were moving. Of course, I also needed to pick up a few jars of lingonberries too!
Since we do not have a grill I made these Memphis hot dogs in the oven. The bacon came out nice and crisp!
How to make Memphis Hot Dogs:
Take the hot dogs, I use Nathan’s because they are the best, and wrap a piece of bacon around each one.
Place on a greased pan then cook in a preheated 375-degree oven for 12 minutes.
Now put the hot dogs under the broiler of your oven for 1 minute, turn them then broil for one minute more.
Once they are done add them to the buns.
Top off these Memphis hot dogs with chopped green onions, cheddar cheese, and some Memphis Style BBQ Sauce. I used my sauce recipe since it is on the vinegary side, which is what Memphis Style BBQ sauces are based on.
And here you are…..
From our home in the Bottom Left of the Mitten to yours ~ Enjoy!

Right! The famous Nathan’s hot dogs. I’m inspired to try them and travel to Nashville and Memphis. BTW You and your husband are welcome to check the CostCo (near Santa Monica) off your check list =)
So many hot dog toppings that I’ve never considered! This Memphis version sounds wonderful!
These are some of my favorite things! Looks like a delicious dog!
A Memphis dog? Well, yes please.
I’m not a huge BBQ meat fan, but I know the rest of my family loves all things BBQ flavored. They would love this hot dog recipe.
I’m the same way Erlene! Some reason though it all works together so well. Hope your family loves it.
