The Dog Haus 'Buldogi' gourmet hot dog has been created in partnership with chef and TV personality Chris Oh as a Korean cuisine-inspired offering that is sure to delight bulgogi fans. The hot dog is being made available as part of the ongoing Chef Collaboration Series and starts off with an all-beef hot dog that is toped with Korean barbecue beef. The hot dog is then topped with K-POP kimchi mayo along with pickled vegetables before being finished with a sunny side-up fried egg, furikake seasoning and scallions, all served on a King's Hawaiian Rolls bun.
The Dog Haus 'Buldogi' gourmet hot dog is being made available at participating locations nationwide through May 16, 2021 and will see $1 from every one sold donated to No Kid Hungry.
