Begin with hot dog Franks and bacon.

Wrap each hot dog tightly with bacon, tucking the end underneath.

Place the wrapped hot dogs in the air fryer basket with the seam side down.

Set the air fryer to 385°F (195°C) for 12 to 14 minutes, starting with 10 minutes.

At the 7-minute mark, turn the hot dogs over for even cooking.

Continue cooking for an additional 4 to 5 minutes until the bacon is done.

Remove the hot dogs from the air fryer using tongs and place them in buns.

For French fries, wash and peel the Russet potatoes if desired.

Cut the potatoes into fry shapes using a knife or fry cutter.

Soak the cut potatoes in a bowl of water with 2 teaspoons of salt for 30 minutes or with ice cubes for cold water.

Drain and dry the potatoes thoroughly with paper towels.

Coat the dried potatoes with 2 teaspoons of oil in a bowl.

Set the air fryer to 350°F for 10 to 15 minutes and preheat.

After preheating, add the potatoes to the air fryer basket and cook for 10 to 15 minutes.

Shake the basket and then increase the temperature to 400°F for another 15 minutes, adjusting to desired crispiness.

Remove the fries and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.

For cooking bacon, set the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).

Optionally line the air fryer basket with aluminum foil.

Place 3 slices of thick-cut Oscar brand bacon in the basket, crosswise if necessary.

Set the timer for 9 minutes and start the air fryer.

Check the bacon after 9 minutes, cooking longer if desired for crispiness.

Remove the bacon with tongs and pat dry before serving.
