Bacon Dog

What is it?

An all-beef, kosher-style frank gets split lengthwise and grilled flat on the same plancha Five Guys uses for its burgers, so the outside picks up a browned, charred surface while the natural casing still gives a firm snap. Thick-cut applewood-smoked bacon goes on top, and that’s the main difference from the standard hot dog in the Five Guys lineup. Without cheese, it’s a short-ingredient build built for the toppings bar, where you can add relish, raw onions, mustard, jalapeños, or other condiments at no extra cost. Compared with the Bacon Cheese Dog, this version skips the melted American cheese and usually costs a little less.
