Fiesty Hot Dog with Chipotle Potato Salad

Oh, my was this good! Too bad the picture didn't come out as great as the food.



Printable Recipe

The hot dog is your usual grilled beef frank, but it is topped with an awesome, but simple, relish.
  • 2 Kosher dill pickles, chopped (we used homemade dills)
  • 1 can (4 oz) chopped green chiles, drained
  • 2 T chopped onion
  • 2 T yellow mustard (or slightly less depending on your tastes)
1. Mix all ingredients.

2. Grill hot dogs and top with mixture.

3. Can be made ahead of time. Refrigerate.

The potato salad is kicked up with chipotles and black beans. It is a nice change to your standard potato salad recipe.
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, diced
  • 3 scallions, finely sliced
  • 2 ribs celery, diced
  • 1 T fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped
  • 1 cup mayo
  • 2-4 chipotle chiles in adobo, (deseeded if you wish) and diced finely
  • 1 T sugar
  • 8 slices bacon, cooked very crisp. Reserve 1 slice for garnish
  • 1 (15 oz) can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 6 hard-boiled eggs, diced
  • 8 medium red potatoes, cooked, cooled and diced
  • S & P
1. Mix first 7 ingredients (red bell pepper thru sugar) together.

2. Toss in remaining ingredients except bacon garnish and S & P.

3. Mix well.

4. Add S & P to taste.

5. Top with reserved bacon. Chill and serve.
