Makes 4 dogs
Oh boy oh boy. I’ll admit the stuffing is a bit of a pain in the ass, but soooooo worth it.
1 whole head garlic
Oil
Kosher salt
4 large jalapenos
4 hot dogs
4 hot dog buns
1/2 cup cream cheese
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper, and a fairly coarse grind too please
Preheat oven to 425
Cut about the top 1/2 inch from the top (pointy end) of the head of garlic to expose the cloves
Place on 2 sheets of foil, drizzle with oil, season with salt and wrap up in the foil - bake for 45 minutes
Cut the top and bottom off the jalapenos, core out inside and gently as you can push the dog inside the jalapeno tube - repeat with remaining dogs & peppers
Grill until peppers are well marked and beautifully softened - 10 to 15 minutes
Open foil packet, squeeze cloves into a small bowl, add cream cheese and pepper and mix well to combine
Toast or grill buns, add roasted garlic cream cheese and a dog
