I’m not ashamed to admit I love hot dogs. I love grilled hot dogs, game day hot dogs, leftover hot dogs, double bacon chili cheese dogs… I’ll eat hot dogs topped with the basics like mustard, ketchup, and relish. But I’ll also eat them topped with crazier toppings like this easy mango salsa.

One of my favorite ways to eat hot dogs, though, is by wrapping hot dogs in bacon and grilling or baking them. Bacon-wrapped hot dogs are the secret to super yummy spicy BLT dogs. Making those bacon-wrapped hot dogs in the oven is the secret to a happy life. Or at least a happy life if it’s pouring rain and you don’t want to do bacon-wrapped hot dogs on the grill.

Don’t underestimate the tastiness of BLT dogs. Sure, there’s bacon, lettuce, and tomato but we’re not talking just any tomato. Nope. We’re talking a can of spicy Ro-Tel diced tomatoes with habaneros. What’s the best way to balance out all that heat? A drizzle of melted cheese of course! And guess what I discovered—Velveeta now comes in individual 4-ounce packets so you can easily heat up only what you need. Those Velveeta Toppers are brilliant!

I found an 8-ounce squeeze bottle the perfect way to drizzle the Velveeta over the spicy BLT hot dogs. Just don’t microwave the cheese in the bottle or it might end up all over the inside of your microwave. Not that I speak from personal experience or anything…
