Perfect for parties, potlucks, or game day gatherings, Mini Hot Dogs N Meatballs are the ultimate crowd-pleasing appetizer featuring a bold, tangy-sweet glaze.

Ready in just 30 minutes with minimal prep, these skewered delights are as easy to make as they are fun to eat. Serve these delectable, saucy bites warm, skewered on toothpicks for the perfect finger food that guarantees rave reviews!
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!
