Easy 3-ingredient Tornado Hot Dogs will be a smashing hit at your 4th of July barbecue!

Easy 2 Ingredient Tornado Hot Dogs

So, are you a ketchup or mustard dipper? I’m team mustard all the way but my twins are split. Millie loves all things dipped in mustard and Jackson is a fan of sweet ketchup. Whichever condiment you choose, can I make one suggestion…buy Applegate Naturals® Beef Hot Dogs and Applegate Organics Uncured Beef Hot Dogs to serve your family. Today I’m partnering with Applegate, a brand I love, to share an EASY 4th of July hot dog recipe with all of you.

Easy 2 Ingredient Tornado Hot Dogs

Applegate’s hotdogs were an obvious choice for me because they are super clean, only 4-ingredients, made with grass-fed beef, and non-GMO. Let’s just say, they are one clean hot dog!

This 4th of July I’m hosting a barbecue and you’d better believe these easy 3-ingredient Tornado Hot Dogs are on the menu. Made with spiral cut Applegate hot dogs wrapped in crescent roll dough and baked, these dogs are festive, delicious and fun to eat! Both kids and adults will love the nostalgic “pigs in a blanket” flavor with the modern twist…get it, twist?

Easy 2 Ingredient Tornado Hot Dogs

Start by skewering your Applegate hot dogs onto a bamboo skewer. Next, use a sharp paring knife to slice a spiral cut down the hot dog. Don’t be intimidated by this step, you really can’t go wrong. I found that the easiest way to achieve a spiral is to lay the skewered hot dog on a cutting board and starting at the top, cut while rotating the dog. Next spread out the spiral cut hotdog to make room for the crescent roll “filling.” Wind the crescent roll dough around the hot dog and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Brush with beaten egg and you are ready to bake.

In just under 20 minutes you have tornado dogs on a stick ready for dipping in your favorite condiments. These dogs are fun for The Fourth because they remind me of classic bottle rockets. So, are you serving hot dogs for the 4th of July? And are you team ketchup or mustard? Either way, I hope you give these tornado dogs a try and have a very fun and festive 4th of July!
