New Orleans Curly Dog Recipes

NEW ORLEANS CURLY DOG

Steps:

• Slice frank at 1/2-inch intervals, being careful to not cut all the way through frank. Place on microwaveable plate.
• Microwave on HIGH 45 sec. or until frank is heated through and curled.
• Place Singles on bottom half of bun; top with frank. Microwave 15 sec. or until Singles begins to melt. Cover with top of bun.

HOT DOG CURLY FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
• Halve the hot dogs lengthwise, then cut each half in half lengthwise, and then in half again lengthwise so that you yield 8 hot dog "fries" from each. Lay the cut pieces in a single layer on the sheet pan and bake until the hot dogs are lightly browned and starting to curl up, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer the fries to paper towels to dry, then mound them on a plate and serve with the three dippers.
• Mix the ketchup and jam together in a bowl and serve.
• Mix together the mayonnaise, sauerkraut, mustard, granulated garlic and salt in a bowl until combined.
• Mix the mustard, relish, celery salt, sport peppers and tomato in a bowl until combined.

JALAPENO-STUFFED CURLY DOGS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Cut the hot dogs lengthwise three-quarters of the way through, leaving the ends intact. Insert a jalapeno strip into each slit.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the baking mix, milk and butter. Fold in the cheese until the dough just comes together.
• On a lightly floured piece of parchment, roll the dough into a rectangle 1/8 inch thick. Cut into thin strips, about 1/4 inch wide.
• Place one end of the hot dog on the dough strip and wrap around each hot dog, spiraling down the dog. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat the process with the remaining dogs. Bake until golden brown, 8 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the dough. Serve immediately.

UGLY DOG SALOON'S COLESLAW DRESSING

Steps:

• In small bowl, blend all ingredients, except the cabbage; whisk to combine thoroughly.
• Chop cabbage into 3/4 to 1 inch chunks (authentic Ugly Dog Style!).
• Combine with dressing.
• Serve immediately or chill for an hour.

CURLY DOGS

Steps:

• Roll each roll into a 14 to 15-inch rope. Twist rope around each hot dog 4 or 5 times, securing ends in dough. Place on a large sprayed baking sheet. Bake immediately at 350°F 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve immediately with desired condiments.
• These curly dogs may also be cooked over hot coals at a summer cookout.
