Sweet-spicy-crispy bacon, beefy Kobe hot dogs & a cool, creamy Greek-inspired cucumber yogurt sauce. This is quite a hot dog.

Good one Matthew. The cucumber yogurt is the perfect condiment.
Thanks Joan, but like 95% of our recipes, I can’t claim credit for this one. They’re all Chef Chris. Some of the recipes on the blog are mine (like the recent ghost chile chocolate sauce recipe and citrus candying technique post), but most of the time I just transcribe/construct the recipes based on what he creates.
