Broncos introduce two-foot hot dog to feed families

Empower Field at Mile High is going big — two feet big — with its newest game-day snack.

Aramark Sports + Entertainment announced Wednesday the “Beast in a Blanket,” a 24-inch grilled hot dog loaded with BBQ brisket burnt ends, goat cheese, sharp cheddar, crispy onions, jalapeño slices, avocado crema, and a “Mile High secret sauce,” all wrapped in puff pastry. It’ll be available in Section 128 starting this season.

The brainchild? Aramark Sous Chef, Sean Clark.

“We wanted to give fans our vision of the ultimate game day item this season. We also wanted it to be something shareable,” said Clark in a news release. The ‘Beast in a Blanket’ is our over-the-top take on the classic “pig in a blanket” game day snack. The “Beast in a Blanket” takes it out of the Sunday living room watch party and steps it up to a level appropriate for Empower Field.”

Broncos fans can try the Beast in a Blanket at Empower Field. Folks who love monster-sized sausages can compare it to the Glizzilla, which is a two-foot hot dog at Coors Field. The baseball cousin goes for just under $50, the football one does not have a listed price yet.
