There's a delicious new way to enjoy grilled hot dogs this summer! My Pig-in-a-Pita recipe is a savory, easy-to-make treat that is perfect for the whole family! Try this delectable dish for your next summer barbeque!

David’s Note: After a sunny day at the beach, this fun hot dog recipe is just what you need.

Tip: If you prefer hamburgers over hot dogs, then form your burger mix into the shape of a hot dog and grill accordingly.

Ingredients:

Serves 5

5 bacon slices

5 jumbo hot dogs

1 (11-oz) can pork and beans

1 Tbsp yellow mustard

1 Tbsp ketchup

5 pocket-less pita

1-2/3 cups yellow cheddar cheese, shredded

3/4 cup red onion, small dice

1-1/4 cups sliced pepperoncini

10 kosher dill pickle sandwich slices

Preparation:

 1.) Preheat a grill to medium heat.

2.) Wrap a bacon slice around each of the hot dogs.

3.) Place the wrapped hot dogs on the grill. Cook, turning every few minutes, until the bacon starts to get crispy and the hot dog is heated through, about 20 minutes.

4.) While they're cooking, place the pork and beans, mustard, and ketchup into the bowl of a food processor. Process until smooth.

5.) Lay the pitas on a work surface and divide the pork and bean purée between each, smearing it over the pita while leaving a .5" border. Top each pita with 1/3 cup cheddar cheese.

6.) Place the pita, cheese-side up, on the grill next to the hot dogs. Heat until the cheese has melted.

7.) Remove the pita from the grill and divide the onion and pepperoncini between each. Place 2 pickle slices on top, followed by the cooked hot dog. Serve warm.

Enjoy Foodies!
