Instructions

1. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and crumbly, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
2. While the beef is cooking, bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the hot dogs and simmer until heated through, about 5-7 minutes.
3. In a deep fryer or a large pot, heat oil to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the diced potatoes and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5-8 minutes. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.
4. In a saucepan over medium heat, warm the baked beans until heated through, about 5 minutes.
5. To assemble the plates, start by dividing the fries among four plates. Add a scoop of macaroni salad and a serving of baked beans to each.
6. Top each plate with a generous portion of the cooked ground beef and a hot dog.
7. Sprinkle chopped onions over the top, and finish with mustard and hot sauce to taste.
