Ingredients
- 1 Lb ground turkey
- 2 Tbs Lamb & Beef Kabob seasoning
- 2 Tbs Chicken Kabob seasoning
- 2 Eggs
- 12 Strips bacon
- 6 Hot dog buns
- 1 Cup panko
- 1 Head romaine lettuce
- 1/3 Cup mayonnaise
- 1/3 Cup sour cream
- 2 1/2 Tbs Cool Ranch seasoning
- Jalapeños & Crushed Red Pepper Flakes to garnish
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Lay bacon strips down on a foil coated baking pan, bake for 10 minutes, flip, and cook for a further 10, removing when bacon is cooked but not crispy.
- In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, panko, beaten eggs, and both Lamb & Beef Kabob and Chicken Kabob seasoning. Mix well by hand until seasoning and eggs are fully incorporated.
- Preheat grill with a medium flame.
- Loosely form 6 kabobs (we do this by hand, and some saran wrap can be helpful too), then in a spiral motion, wrap each with two strips of bacon.
- Prep your sauce: in a medium mixing bowl, combine mayo, sour cream, and Cool Ranch seasoning, and whisk to combine. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
- Place kabobs on the grill and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning regularly, until bacon is well crisped and the turkey dogs reach an internal temperature of 180F.
- Remove kabobs from heat, and allow 2 minutes to cool, before sliding out skewers and placing in hot dog buns.
- Add romaine leaves and jalapeños, then drizzle with your spicy cream sauce, and finish with a generous sprinkle of Crushed Red Pepper Flakes.
- Serve and devour - this is summer backyard BBQ food at its finest.
