Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 pieces cocktail hot dogs
- 16 pieces frozen cooked meatballs
- 1 cup bbq sauce
- 0.5 cup grape jelly
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 16 pieces toothpicks
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the BBQ sauce and grape jelly. Stir well to blend.
Add garlic powder, onion powder, and ground black pepper to the sauce mixture. Stir to combine and heat over medium heat until the sauce just begins to bubble, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the frozen meatballs and cocktail hot dogs to the saucepan. Stir gently to coat them evenly in the sauce.
Lower the heat to medium-low, cover the saucepan, and let the mixture simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the meatballs and hot dogs are heated through and fully coated in the glaze.
Remove the skillet from heat, and let the mixture cool slightly for 2-3 minutes.
Using toothpicks, skewer one cocktail hot dog and one meatball together. Repeat for all pieces.
Serve warm as a party appetizer or a fun finger food. Enjoy!
