Servings: 4

Ingredients:

• 4 high-quality beef hotdogs
• 4 hotdog buns
• 1 cup Flaming Hot Cheetos, finely crushed
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
• 2 tablespoons hot sauce (adjust to taste)
• 1/4 cup pickled jalapeños, sliced
• 1 small red onion, finely diced
• Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Arteflame Grill

• Get your Arteflame Grill hot and ready for grilling. The unique cooktop provides the perfect surface for giving your hotdogs a delicious char while keeping them juicy inside.

2. Prepare the Hotdogs

• Lightly score the hotdogs in a diagonal pattern. This not only adds visual appeal but also increases the surface area, allowing for a delightful crispy texture as they grill.

3. Grill the Hotdogs

• Place the hotdogs on the grill. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are beautifully charred and heated through.

4. Mix the Spicy Mayo

• In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, cream cheese, and hot sauce. Mix until smooth and well incorporated. Adjust the spiciness to your liking by adding more or less hot sauce.

5. Crush the Flaming Hot Cheetos

• Place the Flaming Hot Cheetos in a plastic bag and crush them into a fine powder using a rolling pin. Alternatively, you can use a food processor for a quicker method.

6. Assemble the Hotdogs

• Spread a generous amount of the spicy mayo mixture on each hotdog bun. Place a grilled hotdog in each bun, then sprinkle the crushed Flaming Hot Cheetos over the top, ensuring a good coating.

7. Add Toppings

• Garnish with sliced pickled jalapeños, diced red onion, and cilantro (if using) for an extra flavor kick.

8. Serve and Enjoy

• Serve your Flaming Hot Cheeto Hotdogs immediately, accompanied by your favorite sides. Enjoy the unique combination of flavors and textures that make this dish a true crowd-pleaser at any barbecue or gathering.

Tips

For an even more indulgent experience, drizzle a little extra spicy mayo over the top of the hotdogs before adding the final Cheeto crumbs and garnishes.

Variations

1. Cheesy Cheeto Dogs

• Add a slice of melted cheese to the hotdog before sprinkling on the crushed Flaming Hot Cheetos for an extra cheesy flavor.

2. BBQ Cheeto Dogs

• Substitute the hot sauce in the mayo with BBQ sauce for a smoky, sweet twist.

3. Spicy Garlic Dogs

• Mix in some minced garlic with the mayo and cream cheese for a garlicky kick.

4. Cool Ranch Cheeto Dogs

• Use Cool Ranch Doritos instead of Flaming Hot Cheetos for a tangy, milder flavor.

5. Loaded Nacho Dogs

• Top the hotdogs with nacho cheese sauce and jalapeños, then finish with the crushed Cheetos.

Best pairings

• Side Dish: Serve with crispy fries, coleslaw, or grilled corn on the cob for a complete meal.
• Drink: Pair with an ice-cold beer, a refreshing lemonade, or a chilled soda.
• Dessert: Finish with a light dessert like fruit salad, ice cream, or a chocolate chip cookie.
