My kids loved watching "The Cosby Show" episodes years ago. My son wanted to try Cliff and Theo Huxtable's Bacon Burger Dogs. I came up with these. Just a fun food for our family!
[To improve the healthfulness, I used natural, lean meat products, and served it with Roasted Kale Chips and mixed fresh berries. The kids prefer beef hot dogs and no kale chips.:)]

How to Make Bacon Burger Dogs
- Blend first 7 ingredients by kneading them together.
- Using a bit more than 1/2 cup of the beef mixture, patted into a rectangle, wrap each hot dog. Cover it completely so that it looks like a cylinder.
- Wrap bacon around the outside of the burger dog. If using thinly sliced bacon, I would recommend using two slices.
- Grill the bacon burger dogs until the beef mixture is thoroughly cooked (well done). Be careful to turn them and cook well on all sides.
- When cooked completely, brush with bbq sauce to your taste.
- Serve on buns or rolls with extra bbq sauce, a slice of cheddar cheese, or other condiments of your choosing.
- Enjoy!
