Cedar Dogs... It's a local thing!

Okay, as promised, the next recipe in my list of comfort foods when I am homesick!
Cedar Springs is a small town, and the Cedar Cafe is (or was, if they closed) a small hole-in-the-wall kind of cafe. However, they are home to one of my favorite treats, Cedar Dogs! They are not healthy (imagine gooey melted cheese, cheap hot dogs, flour tortillas and bacon deep fried to perfection!), but they are incredibly tasty, and kids LOVE them!
Cedar Dogs
Hot Dogs
Shredded Cheese
Flour Tortillas
Bacon
Toothpicks
Deep Fryer
1.) Lay a tortilla on a flat surface.
2.) Sprinkle the tortilla with shredded cheese.
3.) Place a hot dog in the middle of the tortilla and roll the hot dog up inside the tortilla.
4.) Wrap strips of bacon around the tortilla and secure with toothpicks.
5.) Deep fry at 375 degrees until the tortilla begins to darken.
6.) Place on a cooling rack to drain excess oil.
Served with some ranch dressing (or for a more traditional taste, ketchup), these are a great snack or addition to a "fried feast"!
