Method
Preheat your air fryer to 200°C.

Divide into four equal portions.
Wrap each portion around a sausage, sealing it completely.
Place the burger dogs into the air fryer basket.
Air fry for 14–16 minutes, turning halfway through.
Cook until the beef is browned and the sausage is fully heated through.
During the final 2 minutes, warm the hot dog rolls in the fryer.
Place each burger dog into a roll.
Top with grated cheddar and return to the fryer for 1–2 minutes until melted.
Drizzle over burger sauce and BBQ sauce.
Finish with crispy onions, pickles, jalapeños, or American cheese if using.
Serve immediately while still hot and messy.
