Preheat oven and cast iron pan at 400 degrees.

You can use a baking stone or baking dish, but you will get the desired crispiness in the cast iron pan. Use a pre-heated pan; it should sizzle when you put the bacon-wrapped dogs in.

Grate cheese.

Slice hot down center, leaving it still in one piece. Stuff. Wrap in bacon. I don’t use tooth picks, as they are harder to turn. just carefully turn and they should still stay together.

Check at 8 minutes. Turn at 8-10 minutes. Serve in toasted buns.
