Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Baking tray
  • Parchment paper or aluminum foil
  • Cooking spray or oil
  • Oven mitts

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb (450g) ground beef (80% lean preferred)
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 4 hot dog sausages (beef, chicken, or plant-based)
  • 4 slices of cheddar cheese (optional)
  • 4 hot dog buns or crescent dough sheets

Optional Toppings:

  • Ketchup
  • Mustard
  • Pickles
  • Caramelized onions
  • Jalapeños

Instructions
 

  • Step 1: Preheat the Oven
    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper or aluminum foil and lightly spray with cooking spray.
  • Step 2: Prepare the Burger Mixture
    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until all ingredients are evenly incorporated. Avoid overmixing to keep the meat tender.
  • Step 3: Assemble the Burger Dogs
    Divide the ground beef mixture into four equal portions.
    Flatten each portion into a thin rectangle on a clean surface.
    Place a hot dog sausage in the center of the flattened beef.
    (Optional) Lay a slice of cheddar cheese on top of the sausage.
    Carefully wrap the beef around the sausage, ensuring the ends are sealed to prevent the filling from leaking.
  • Step 4: Wrap in Buns or Dough
    For a classic look, place each wrapped sausage into a hot dog bun. If you’re using crescent dough sheets, roll them around the beef-wrapped sausages, pinching the edges to seal.
  • Step 5: Bake
    Place the prepared Burger Dogs onto the lined baking tray, leaving some space between each. Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until the beef is fully cooked (internal temperature of 160°F/70°C) and the buns or dough are golden brown.
  • Step 6: Serve
    Remove from the oven and let them cool for a couple of minutes. Add your favorite toppings like ketchup, mustard, or pickles before serving. Enjoy hot!
