Ingredients 🛒
For the Sandwich Base:
- 1 large loaf of French bread or Italian bread (about 20 inches) 🥖
- 6-8 hot dogs (jumbo or regular-sized) 🌭
- 6 slices cooked bacon (crispy and crumbled) 🥓
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese 🧀
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese 🧀
- 1/2 cup cream cheese (softened) 🧈
- 2 tablespoons butter (melted) 🧈
- 2 cloves garlic, minced 🧄
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley 🌿
For the Toppings:
- 1/4 cup ketchup 🍅
- 1/4 cup mustard 🌭
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise 🥪
- 1/4 cup pickled jalapeños (optional for spice) 🌶️
- 1/4 cup diced pickles 🥒
- 1/4 cup crispy fried onions (optional for crunch) 🧅✨
Instructions 👨🍳
1. Prep the Bread 🥖
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Take the large loaf of French bread and carefully slice it in half lengthwise to create a top and bottom layer.
- Hollow out some of the soft bread from the center of each half to make room for the fillings. (Save the bread pieces for breadcrumbs later!)
2. Make the Garlic Butter Spread 🧄🧈
- In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, and dried parsley.
- Brush the garlic butter generously over the cut sides of the bread. This adds flavor and keeps the bread from getting soggy.
3. Prepare the Cheese Spread 🧀
- In another bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, and 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese. Mix until smooth and spreadable.
4. Cook the Hot Dogs 🌭
- Heat a grill pan, skillet, or nonstick frying pan over medium heat.
- Place the hot dogs in the pan and cook until lightly browned and heated through (about 5 minutes). Rotate to ensure even cooking.
5. Assemble the HUGE Cheese Dog Sandwich 🧪🥖
- Bottom Half of the Bread:
- Spread the creamy cheese mixture evenly across the bottom half of the bread. 🧀
- Lay the cooked hot dogs side by side on top of the cheese spread.
- Add More Cheese & Bacon:
- Sprinkle half of the remaining cheddar cheese and mozzarella cheese over the hot dogs.
- Add the crispy, crumbled bacon for extra savory goodness. 🥓
- Top It Off with Bread:
- Place the top half of the bread back on to form one massive sandwich.
