A cheese dog is a hot dog served with cheese or processed cheese on it or stuffed within it, as a filling.[1]
In the United States, sliced or grated cheese, such cheddar or American cheese,[2] is commonly used, often served melted on the hot dogs. The use of other types of cheese also occurs, such as cream cheese[3] and Swiss cheese.[4][5][6] The cheese may be on the bun, on the wiener, processed inside the hot dog, or placed in the middle of a hot dog that has been sliced in half.[7]
Traditional hot dog buns are typically used. Slices of toast are also used sometimes, or just plain bread.
Cheeses are also often served on chili dogs. An example includes the "Cincinnati Coney" which uses shredded cheddar cheese.[8][9][9]
In Chicago there is a variation of the danger dog called the Francheezie. Typically found at "greasy spoon" restaurants, it consists of a jumbo hot dog split in the middle and filled with Cheddar cheese (or Velveeta). It is wrapped in bacon and deep-fried, then served on a toasted bun.[10][11]
Another variation is a hot dog topped with macaroni and cheese.[12][13]
A reuben dog can consist of a hot dog topped with ingredient combinations such as corned beef, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese and Russian dressing.[7]
