3 lb turkey hot dogs cut in 1 inch sections
3 c ketchup
3 c brown sugar, lightly packed
1 1/2 c whiskey of your choice

They are done when the sauce is very thick and the meat looks fully saturated. Serve at once with plenty of tooth picks.

Tips:

Choose High-Quality Ingredients: Opt for good quality hot dogs and bacon. Look for plump, evenly-colored hot dogs and crisp, thick-cut bacon.
Pre-cook the Bacon: Partially cooking the bacon before wrapping it around the hot dogs ensures even cooking and prevents the bacon from becoming too crispy.
Use Toothpicks Wisely: Secure the bacon-wrapped hot dogs with toothpicks, but avoid piercing the hot dogs multiple times to prevent them from drying out.
Grill or Pan-Fry: You can cook drunken dogs on the grill or in a pan. If grilling, preheat the grill to medium-high heat and cook the hot dogs for 5-7 minutes per side.
Baste with Beer: Basting the hot dogs with beer during cooking adds flavor and keeps them moist. Use a brush to apply the beer.
Don't Overcook: Overcooking can result in dry, tough hot dogs. Cook them just until the bacon is crispy and the hot dogs are heated through.

Conclusion:

Drunken dogs are a fun and flavorful twist on the classic hot dog. By wrapping them in bacon, basting them with beer, and grilling or pan-frying them to perfection, you can create a delicious and satisfying meal. Serve drunken dogs with your favorite toppings, such as ketchup, mustard, relish, and sauerkraut, for a complete and enjoyable dining experience.
