If you’re following a Paleolithic-Ketogenic Diet (PKD), carnivore, or animal-based ketogenic diet, you might fondly remember sinking your teeth into a hot dog. It’s the ultimate quick-fix comfort food—tasty, convenient, but often loaded with carbs, additives, and questionable oils, especially when slathered with sauce. Hot dogs, sadly, don’t align with the nutrient-dense goals of these diets. animal based paleo keto hot dog recipe
Recently, I found myself with a leftover additive-free pork-beef sausage and decided to reinvent the hot dog, animal-based-style. I crafted a version that skips the plants, sugar, and additives entirely, while hitting the ideal fat-to-protein ratio. Best of all? Each serving clocks in at under 1 gram of carbs. Here’s how I brought this keto-friendly classic back to life!
Ingredients - makes 2 servings
Buns
4 big egg whites
2 big egg yolks
Salt
12 g pork rinds
15 g pork greaves
5 g smoked Mangalica slab or fatty bacon, diced
Sauce
2 big egg yolks
20 g smoked Mangalica slab, fatty bacon, diced
Salt
Alternatively, use the bone marrow mayo from this recipe instead.
Additionally
2 beef-pork sausages with 30% fat
Method
Preheat the oven to 200 °C.
Fry the bacon dices until crispy. Separate from the rendered fat and set aside.
Whip the egg whites with a pinch of salt until very stiff peaks.
Ground the pork rinds.
Blend the yolks with the greaves and mix with the pork rind powder.
Carefully fold in the egg whites.
Form two Hot Dog buns with the help of two spoons on a baking tray lined with parhement paper. Top with the bacon cubes.
Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden.
Fry the sausages in an iron pan.
For the sauce whisk vigorously the egg yolks with the warm rendered bacon fat until thickens. Salt if necessary. Mix in the bacon cubes.
Alternatively, use the bone marrow mayo.
With a sharp knife make wholes into the buns big enough to fit the sausages in.
Divide the sauce between the buns and carefully slide the sausages into the holes.
Enjoy!
