Banh Mi Hot Dogs - A fun Asian, spicy banh mi twist to the traditional hot dog!

I hope you’re not getting sick of all these hot dog recipes! I know, 3rd one in a row, but hey, I love hot dogs, especially around this time of year when you can just throw them on the grill and get so creative with different kinds of toppings.

And with Labor Day right around the corner, Hebrew National hot dogs are a must. We’ll be stocking up the fridge with all sorts of goodies to make a hot dog bar for our end-of-the-summer Labor Day party. That way, every guest can customize their own hot dog to their liking. I’ll also have these pre-made Sriracha guacamole hot dogs and Hawaiian hot dogs with mango salsa for the indecisive folks. Either way, a hot dog party is perfect for summer’s last hurrah before the pumpkin and peppermint recipes start blasting in on Pinterest.

A last-minute add on to our Labor Day menu is this Vietnamese-inspired bahn mi hot dog. Being a huge bahn mi lover myself, I’ve been meaning to make these since the beginning of summer but I just never got around to it. I was worried that it was too time-consuming to make but this Martha Stewart recipe had these hot dogs ready in 20 minutes! With a simple pickling of carrots in sugar and vinegar, you can prep everything else and throw the hot dogs on the grill in the meantime. Once your hot dogs has those gorgeous grill marks, throw those babies onto the toasted hot dog buns, spoon a generous serving of pickled carrots, sliced cucumbers, jalapeños for you spicy-daredevils, crushed peanuts and of course, Sriracha.

So if you’re a fan of the Vietnamese banh mi sandwich, these hot dogs are a must! But even if you’re not, you’ll still love this refreshing, spicy and tangy hot dog concoction!
