Ultimate Bacon Sausage Dogs

Here's my first instructable on my grilled bacon wrapped sausage. The key here is to NOT use hot dogs and hot dog buns, but bratwurst and kielbasa on hoagie rolls. Top with sauteed onions and peppers for a real hot dog.

The following people may want to stay away: Vegans, health food nuts, or anyone with high BP or cholesterol. The rest of you may enjoy.

Step 1 Ingredients

Start off by collecting the following ingredients. The Hillshire Farm's sausage was on sale for 4th of July weekend so i bought those. I particularity like the non precooked Jonsonville brats and Italian sausage. They are juicier and fatter than the Hillshires, but they don't go on sale too often. Of the Hillshire Farm sausages, I like the flavor of the Hot Links. If you don't like spicy food, the Brats are a good choice.

1-2 Maui onions (or any large sweet onions)
1 Package of sausage (bratwurst, hot links and kielbasaish beef sausage used here)
1 Package of thick cut bacon
1 Stick of butter
1 Bag of hoagie rolls (If the bread isn't good enough to eat on its own, it is sub par for any type of sandwich or burger)
1 Handful of wood to use as smoke. I used mesquite (soaked in water beforehand)
Several peppers of your choice (I used home grown Scotch Bonnets, Naga Jolokias and Chihuacle Negros)

So delicious... to bad I had to try it with a normal sausage. Also, with a bit of avocado, ohhh... greatest meal ever.

Wow, this looks amazing. I can't wait for it to get warm enough to grill again and try these.

a good title to this would be, how to have a heart attack in 5 easy steps...but who am i to talk this is the perfect meal for me! god i love bacon and brats...why have i never thought of this before. Also this reminds me of that simpsons episode where homer tells bart to bacon up everything he eats or something like that.
