I'm afraid this post just had to be done. When Glenn (my hubs) gets an idea about something he wants to make, he will not drop it until he gets it. I found these chicken andouille sausages at Costco, and I snatched them up because they were only two points each! Glenn was also SO excited, because it meant he would finally get the ultimate hotdogs that he'd been dreaming about nonstop for the last two weeks.
These are incredibly simple. You split your dog down the center, stuff with grated cheese of your choice, wrap tightly in bacon and secure with toothpicks. Grill, turning so that the bacon gets evenly cooked, don't be alarmed if some of the cheese drips out. Place in your bun, top with mustard, onions, relish, whatever sounds good to you. Be sure to have your defibrillator paddles close just to be safe!
You'll notice that mine was missing the bacon and cheese, not because I didn't want one, but because I probably would have ended up so sick if I ate one in it's entirety. I did try one though, and it was good. My advice would be to start with just a plain hotdog, and not a sausage or brat. The cheese and bacon already add so much flavor that the sausage made the whole thing a bit overwhelming. Definitely not the healthiest dish, but hey, it's summertime, you gotta let loose every once and a while!
