Triple Dog Dare
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
- 1 teaspoon poppy seeds
- 1 teaspoon honey
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- 2 hot dog buns
- 3 slices bacon
- 3 hot dogs
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- Sliced tomatoes, red onion and cucumber, lettuce leaves, dill pickle slices and pickled peppers, for topping
- Celery salt, for sprinkling
- Make the dressing: Whisk the mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, poppy seeds, honey, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a bowl.
- Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Prepare the sandwiches: Preheat the broiler.
- Tear the hot dog buns in half lengthwise at the seam, then cut each side in half crosswise to make 8 pieces; flatten slightly with your hand.
- Arrange the bun pieces on a baking sheet and broil until golden, about 2 minutes per side.
- Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat, turning, until crisp, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Drain on paper towels, then break each piece in half.
- Split each hot dog lengthwise, about three-quarters of the way through, and open like a book.
- Melt the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
- Place the hot dogs cut-side down in the skillet; cook until browned and heated through, about 2 minutes per side.
- Cut each hot dog in half crosswise.
- Sprinkle the tomatoes with celery salt.
- For each sandwich, spread 1 bun piece with some of the dressing and top with a piece of bacon, tomato, red onion, cucumber, lettuce and a hot dog; drizzle with more dressing and top with another bun piece.
- Repeat to make 2 more layers, ending with a bun piece.
- Secure the sandwich with a long skewer; top with a dill pickle slice and a pickled pepper.
