Jalapeño Popper Dogs
Description
Make hot dogs even better by grilling them with cheese and inside extra large jalapeno peppers. You might even want to wrap some bacon around them for even more flavor and perhaps serve them with some sweet slaw on top of the mustard.
Ingredients

Preheat grill to high heat.
Slice tops off jalapeños; cut off bottoms where they start to narrow. Using a paring knife, dig out seeds and ribs of peppers to form hollow tubes.
Slice hot dogs lengthwise almost all the way through.
Break cheese into rectangles that are the same width as the hot dogs. Place a few pieces of cheese on each halved hot dog; close the dog to re-form the hot dog with the cheese in the center.
Stuff hot dogs into the jalapeño tubes. (Depending on how big the jalapeños are, 2 or 3 should fit around each hot dog.)
Grill, charring jalapeños on all sides and warming the hot dogs; remove from heat before too much cheese leaks out.
Serve on hot dog buns with mustard.
Makes 4.
