as a child, i always had an aversion to the taste of hot dogs. and a kids in the hall skit confirmed my distaste when they claimed that hot dogs were composed of yucky animal parts, mixed with old phone books and wieeeeener flavour. (i still firmly believe this is the original recipe for hot dogs). and truth be told, i've never liked the vegan hot dogs all that much either. then behold, the diablo dog.
ms. jewbacca and
ms. crunk both had me intrigued, then salivating, and then running to the store. i snatched up the jumbo dogs and some seriously awesome vegan hoagie buns. i kid you not, this is a little (er, huge) piece of sinful heaven.

my diablo dog consisted of:
- huge hoagie buns
- jumbo vegan hot dogs
- jalapenos
- chopped tomatoes
- regular mustard
- hot scottish mustard
- chopped pickles
- chopped green peppers
- vegan queso
- chili beans
- hot sauce
- ketchup
- sauerkraut
first get your prep out of the way, because when those dogs are done, you aren't going to want to be cutting tomatoes and pickles.

split the hot dogs down the center and pop them on the grill (about medium heat). then split the hoagies and grill them for a minute or two as well so they are nice and crunchy. pile all the fixins on, smush everything together and do your best to get it in your mouth.
definitely a three or four napkin dish.
