A delightful twist on the classic hot dog, featuring melted cheese and crispy bacon.
Preheat your broiler to medium-high heat.
Ensure the broiler rack is positioned about 6 inches from the heat source for even cooking.
Cut a lengthwise slit in each hot dog, being careful not to cut all the way through.
Use a sharp knife for a clean cut, and avoid cutting too deep to keep the hot dog intact.
Insert a slice of cheddar cheese into the slit of each hot dog.
If the cheese slice is too large, trim it to fit snugly into the slit.
Wrap a slice of smoked bacon around each hot dog, securing it with toothpicks at both ends.
Overlap the bacon slightly as you wrap to ensure full coverage.
Place the hot dogs on a broiler-safe tray and broil, turning occasionally, until the bacon is crispy and the hot dogs are heated through, about 8-10 minutes.
Keep an eye on the hot dogs to prevent the bacon from burning.
Serve the hot dogs in soft buns and enjoy immediately.
For added flavor, serve with your favorite condiments like mustard or ketchup.
