Preparation

Step 1

Preheat grill to medium.

Brush grill grate with oil. For the pimento cheese, purée Cheddar, mayonnaise, and cream cheese in a food processor until smooth;
add pimentos and pulse to combine. Season pimento cheese with Tabasco.

For the hot dogs, wrap bacon around hot dogs and secure each end with
toothpicks. Grill hot dogs until bacon is crisp (remove toothpicks before serving).
