Cypress,
Right you are. Even chicken livers...............
Dry chicken livers, dot with mustard, wrap 1/2 slice of bacon and with a wet tooth pick skewer it. Broil for 5 minutes turning once. Yummm

Bacon wrapped hot dogs are some of my favorite street food.
In Mexicali I recommend "Oscar's" on Benito Juarez. It's just across the street (and a little south) from the UABC campus. It's a little yellow cart
next to "Space Pizza". Very popular with the locals.
Oscar's is open after 3pm.. to 2am or so I think.. All you can eat french fries, and a plethora of goodies to add, melted cheese, grilled onions,
chiles, etc.. etc..

Dennis,
I think you are correct, I forgot the name. Now that you mention it, I think the Rumaki verson has a thin slice of water chestnut under the bacon.

So whats the secret to keep the bacon tightly wrapped around the hotdog during/after cooking? Specifically the ends of the bacon.
I've tried toothpicks, but it just seems so unauthentic.
I'll have to check out the "Rosarito" brand. Is it a thin or thick dog?
I think thiner dogs work best. They tend to cook better and leave more space in the bun for goodies.

mango - i made em yesterday, used turkey franks. heres the secret, well mine anyway. and no Toooth pix needed - they just get in the way.
the turkey franks plump nicely when you fry them.
get the griddle very hot. wrap the dogs using THIN style bacon, any kind - cheap is fine.
the fat on the bacon will ahere to the dog skin. now, place the wrapped dogs onto the hot grill and cover with a pan cover, or some kind of weighted
lid to hold them down in place and let sizzle 5 min or so, until the bacon on that down side cooks crisp.
then rotate 180 degrees, i.e. flip them over gingerly with a tong. now let that side get crisp - then do the opposing sides to get it all crisp.
the dog expands as it plumps and the fried crisp bacon holds it all together.
next i try em with Brots, steamed 1st to cook fully before wrap and fry em!!
i made a wasabi mayo sauce to top the dogs with Sunday, out standing...........ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Capt Mike,
"wasabi mayo sauce"?
Hot dogs only enter my household when my dear father visits and shops for his favorite comfort foods. But, I can be converted if WMS covers it. As
simple as it sounds or do you have a 20 ingredient recipe?
Might try it for my next Spam party.

I've been playing around with the recipe since I tried some commercial sauce at Juan and Shari's. Here's what I've come up with so far:
Wasabi powder or paste
sesame oil
ginger powder
Honey
Lime juice
Mayo
Just experiment with the ingredients till you get it like you want.
I use the honey,mayo and lime juice to make a miracle whip style dressing, then add the other spices..wasabi last. I prefer using the paste rather
than the powder.

Here we call them calientitos. Most of the time they are calientos de pavo....do not give me a turkey hot dog. I want pork wrapped in more
pork..crema, diced tomatoes, mustard, catsup, onions, salsa picante. dripping down your arm...triple servietas.

Dave has it down Judy.
Actually i 1st bought it off the shelf at Albertsons, then ran out so made my own - just experimented till i got it close to better.
i generally am not a mayo fan. But Doctored up to hide some of its flavor - well this mixture is killer on bacon dogs.
add some hot relish to the wasabi mayo mix too, about as much as you would if making scratch tartar sauce for fried fish filets.

I always thought it ironic that Mexicans make the best hot dogs. Hold the mayo though, nothing more dangerous than old, warm mayo.
Hot Italian sausage wrapped in bacon and grilled sounds good. I'll have to buy some sausage in San Diego today. Has anybody ever seen good sausage in
Baja? I haven't found any in TJ yet.

Those toothpicks can deal you some serious damage if you don't know they're there. Chomped down on a poor boy sandwitch once and got speared. Major
pain.

Yeah ..... They have to be watched out for, kinda like the olive pit at the center of tamales.

A valuable lesson to be learned here. Once at a Christmas meal, my father-in-law declared he had eaten 3 tamales and was stuffed. Little Fernanda
looked at his plate and said. "No Tio Amador, you ate 6 tamales. I counted the olive pits!"
Since that meal, I always discard the pits, the picks and all other evidence about mid-meal. No proof is evident when I lie now.
I think the world is run by C- students.

BMG Tamales are in a class all by themselves, some of the best food a person can enjoy. Most folks can't fix a batch of tamales.

My mother-in-law used to make up a few hundred tamales every Christmas. Every one of them had 1 green olive inside. We ate them for breakfast, lunch
and dinner. Unfortunately, neither my wife or any of her sisters ever got the recipe from her before she passed away. They all tried to make them but
they've never been the same. I doubt that I will ever have a tamale as good as Estela's again. Or at least they won't be as good as my memories of
her's.
