How do you guys feel about hot dogs?
Personally, my family is not all that into them.
See, I love idea of hots dogs. Grilling them over fire and all the endless toppings. I mean these loaded cheddar hots dogs and these CajunAndouille hot dogs are pretty awesome.
It’s the dog part we don’t really like. Sure they taste good going down, but my dad and I don’t normally feel all that good afterwards.
To be honest, I can not even remember the last time we ate one. I think it had to have been when I was younger and my family would go to our cabin in New york and cook them over the fire outside with our cousins. Those were the best times. If Maggie, Abby or Little Matt are reading, they know what I am talking about.
Hot dogs, s’mores and dirt bikes up at the cabin all weekend long.
My favorite people and the best memories!
I have to say though, these Cajun Andouille dogs would probably be so darn awesome. Andouille sausage is like one of my all time favorite flavors. I am actually stewing a HUGE pot of gumbo on the stove right now chock-full of andouille sausage for the entire clan – yes, all 26 of us! The house smells awesome.
Plus, sausage dogs are so different than the Ball Park franks I am used too.
I was not planning on posting these guys today, but I thought I would give you some time before the Fourth to gather your ingredients.
Because I mean really, real buffalo chicken dogs need to be on your Fourth of July menu.
They are easy, delicious and actually a healthy hot dog.
Score!
Plus, they can go right on the grill with all your burgers, caprese nachos and grilled fruit and brie pizza crisps.
I am not going to lie, this hot dog is basically just like eating a buffalo chicken burger, but in hot dog form. But hey, it makes it fun and I swear I think they taste better! I mean honestyly, they are so good!
The buffalo sauce, the cheddar cheese, the blue cheese, the spicy avocado ranch.
It’s all good.
My poor dad who never got to eat these, was looking at the photos and was like, “dang Tieg, you know I don’t like hot dogs, but those looks so good.”
He really loves buffalo sauce though. Remember?
This is my idea of an awesome hot dog.

I lurrrrve hot dogs. Maybe it’s because I grew up on nothing but McDonald’s Happy Meals, snack cakes and cookies, hot dogs, and corn dogs. Lol, I wish I were joking. These look SO awesome!! I love the spicy twist and the tops with the cheddar and green onion and blue cheese.. I die.
Thank you, Hayley!!
