What causes the bacon dogs to start smoking in the air fryer?
Size of hot dogs and thickness of the bacon will vary so adjust times accordingly. Cooking too much bacon at once can release oil splattering on the heating element. This causes the air fryer to release smoke. Try not to cook too much bacon at once. Read our detailed write up here on What Causes Air Fryer to Smoke.

Tips on How To Cook Bacon Wrapped Hot Dogs in Air Fryer
- We love having crispy hot dog edges. It tastes like it came off the grill.
- When wrapping each slice of bacon to secure to the hot dog, you can use a toothpick. But make sure to remove the toothpick before eating.
- But if you don’t like to have crispy hot dog edges, then make sure to wrap the bacon all the way to the tips. One way to keep the bacon from shrinking away from the hot dog ends is to use toothpicks to secure the bacon. Make sure to remove the toothpick before eating!
- Warm the buns in the air fryer for about 1 minute.
- You can use turkey bacon, but spray it with oil once it’s wrapped around the hot dog. The oil around the turkey bacon will keep it from drying out too fast. The flavor will be great!
- Air fryer ovens will take a few more minutes, depending on the power and size of the air fryer.
- Add your favorite toppings like onion, relish, pickles and even bbq sauce.

Great idea to cook bacon-wrapped hot dogs in the air fryer. I cooked it a little longer to get the bacon crispier and the hot dog was charred and perfect. That’s how I like it. I’ll be making this again!
Hi Jen,
we like it cooked a little longer too. Crispy hot dogs and bacon is a great combo!
Both the hot dog and bacon cooked perfectly. Thanks a lot!
It’s always hard for me to get my bacon crispy but with this recipe I was finally able to get my bacon perfectly crispy. Easy clean up too.
So glad you enjoyed the the crispy bacon hot dogs!
My mouth started watering just from the pictures alone. I had to try this out in my newly bought air fryer and it came it SOOO good!
