Tonight I was getting hungry but didn't want to cook another full meal (made a huge pot of Goulash last night). Also, I'm not one to let food go to waste sitting in the refrigerator.

With my wife still at work, I figured it was a perfect time for me to check out what's sitting in the frig that I could make into a dish.

I immediately spied the more-than-bun-length Hebrew National hot dogs. Hmm; good start but it needs more.

I then saw the container of Sloppy Joe meat my wife made up a few nights ago. I'm not too fond of Sloppy Joe's so I knew this needed more - and KC Masterpiece Original BBQ Sauce was just the thing.

When I got the dog, 3/4 cup of Sloppy Joe meat and a couple of Tbsp of BBQ sauce on the bun I still wasn't satisfied so I looked in the pantry & found a bag of "medium" New Mexico orange chili powder we got from a native in Taos last April. I put a couple of good pinches of this across the top of the dog mix and found that it's insidious powder that mixes into the air quickly and easily - I was racked with a sneezing fit.

Once recovering, I still wasn't satisfied so a couple of Tbsp of Frank's "Hot Buffalo" HotWing Sauce was in order.

Now, I was almost satisfied with this dish. The coup de gras needed to be 1/2 cup of shredded cheese across the top.

After a minute in the microwave, I had my dinner; a treat I've affectionately labeled the "DevilDog" (given the toppings, I'm certain you understand why it got that name).

I wolfed this thing down and I'm thinking of making another but I've got to tell you that these aren't for the faint of heart because this dog bites back!



Please excuse the paper plate - I didn't want to have to do dishes either.
