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

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, combine the BBQ sauce and grape jelly. Stir well to blend.

Step 2

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.

Step 3

Add the frozen meatballs and cocktail hot dogs to the saucepan. Stir gently to coat them evenly in the sauce.

Step 4

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.

Step 5

Remove the skillet from heat, and let the mixture cool slightly for 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Using toothpicks, skewer one cocktail hot dog and one meatball together. Repeat for all pieces.

Step 7

Serve warm as a party appetizer or a fun finger food. Enjoy!
