Dog Haus has formalized its partnership with Ilan Hall, naming the celebrity chef Culinary Wingman for the hot dog franchise.

According to an article on qsr.com, Hall, who rose to prominence as a contestant and eventual winner of Top Chef’s second season and now hosts Esquire Network’s Knife Fight, will work alongside Dog Haus’s Würstmacher (sausage maker) Adam Gertler. The pair will develop new menu items and refine existing ones.

Hall has previously worked with Dog Haus in an ad hoc capacity, developing specialty menu items, including the Bad Mutha Clucka, a fried chicken sandwich that has become a permanent menu item.

“Ilan has been an incredible friend and partner of ours in the past, and we’re thrilled to make him an official member of the Dog Haus family,” said Dog Haus Partner Hagop Giragossian. “We are confident Ilan will be an instrumental part in Dog Haus’ future and we look forward to seeing his culinary vision come to life.”
