The Sonoran hot dog is a style of hot dog popular in Tucson,[1][2][3] Phoenix,[4] and elsewhere in southern Arizona.[5] It originated in Hermosillo, the capital of the Mexican state of Sonora, in the late 1980s.[6][7] It consists of a hot dog that is wrapped in bacon and grilled, served on a bolillo-style hot dog bun, and topped with pinto beans, onions, tomatoes, and a variety of additional condiments, often including mayonnaise, mustard, and jalapeño salsa.[8][9]

The Sonoran hot dog is prepared and sold by vendors called "dogueros" at street carts.[6] It was estimated in 2009 that over 200 places in Tucson purvey the Sonoran hot dog, and that Phoenix has even more.[6]
