Jackalope Dog (hot dog of rabbit, antelope and pork)

The restaurant Frank in Austin offers a “Jackalope” hot dog on its menu, described as “Our custom-made antelope, rabbit & pork sausage, huckleberry compote, sriracha aioli, cheddar.” The “jackalope” is a mythical animal, somewhat like a jackrabbit with antelope horns.
 
Frank has served “Jackalope” since 2009. In March 2012, the food blog Serious Eats named “Jackalope” its “Hot Dog of the Week.”
 
 
Wikipedia: Jackalope
The jackalope is a mythical animal of North American folklore (a so-called “fearsome critter”) described as a jackrabbit with antelope horns or deer antlers and sometimes a pheasant’s tail (and often hind legs). The word “jackalope” is a portmanteau of “jackrabbit” and “antalope”, an archaic spelling of “antelope”. It is also known as Lepus temperamentalus.

The Jacklelope dog was described as an Antelope and Rabbit sausage with a Huckleberry Compote and spicy aioli. Yum! It tasted even better than it sounded.

Lee pretty accurately described the Jackalope above, but I will add that, though its messy, the sweet, savory combination of the antelope sausage and the huckleberry compote really make for delicious late night noshing.

Outstanding sausage, fruit compote and cheesey goodness make this the perfect bite. The one drawback, the bun doesn’t stand up to the gooeyness and falls apart before you can finish your dog.
