Does this mean I am a culinary simpleton?

So, I have made and enjoyed butts, loins, tenderloins, ribs, all kinds of chicken, seafood, meatloaf and lots of other stuff on the egg but this might just be my favorite. Hotdogs, wrapped in applewood smoked bacon, dusted with a little rub then cooked indirect at 350 until the bacon was just right. A few Apple wood chips tossed in for light smoke. It may be the best tasting thing I have made yet, but it is certainly nothing compared to some of the fantastic cooks posted here. Just got me to wondering what is wrong with me to like something so tasty and easy to make?

Not a bad idea especially the jalapeños.

They look good to me... Nothing simple about making food that makes you happy. 

Don't sweat it and egg on...

Brother epcotisbest, fine looking grub there!  Branch out and there's a lot more fine grub to be made!  Love the dogs!

Nah, eat what makes you happy.

Simple is often best

Nothing wrong with hotdogs my friend. They are one of my very favorites. I like them bacon wrapped, chili covered, a smear of sautéed onions, a shot of mustard, a shot of ketchup, a smear of dill relish, a cover of heavy battered fried onion rings and smothered in cheese. Just doesn't get much better than that. Great looking grub. Enjoy.

Man absolutely nothing wrong with that. I typically go on a hotdog binge at the beginning of baseball and burn myself out on them. With this post Nathan's or Hebrew National will probably get some business from me soon. Great looking cook.

I love hot dogs!

I would hit that all day!  Not all the recipes are fancy are involved.  Moinkballs for example- frozen meatballs wrapped in bacon.  

Our dinner last night was simple wings.  Dusted with rub and threw them on.  Your hot dogs required more prep time than my wings.

The fact that you fire up the egg for making a hot dog great says it all.

The easier it is to make it the better I like it. Nothing wrong with those dogs, I'd eat them any day. Egg On dude!

Banquet right there-as said above, cook what you enjoy and have fun with it.  There is plenty of time to get adventurous and hose up cooks down the road.

You should be ashamed of yourself.  Are you using this thread as some kind of come- out announcement about your egging preference?  Next thing you know, you'll want to have it legalized.  This could be a campaign topic.

Excellent looking cook, epcot. I'm going to try this soon.

epcotisbest

I had these straight off the plate with some sides. Next time I think I'll try them in a bun with mustard, onion and slaw. Should be good.

That is not simple at all.  Hotdogs don't get the respect they deserve.

Eggcellent cook.  Than you for sharing!  My wife will microwave her dogs.  I will always use the Egg...

 The meager hot dog is a wonderful meal, always puts a smile on my face.

Yeah, I guess it is the kid in me, but hotdogs make me smile as well. Always get the $1.50 dog and coke at Sam's every time I go in there. As you can tell by my screen name, this 55 year old kid likes Disney World as well. Often get the pulled pork and slaw dog at Casey's while there and will try to replicate it at home soon.

@epcotisbest looks great! Now I want Italian sausage wrapped in bacon.

With Fall coming I think it's natural to start wrapping all our foods in a nice bacon blanket.

Hot dogs kick ass!
