Skip the chicken skewers or basic hot dogs in a bun—if you're looking for the most creative grilled recipe or a way to get even the kids excited, then turn to these hot dog skewers. In this recipe, we layer cut up hot dogs, bell peppers, pineapple, and onions on skewers before basting with a homemade sweet-tangy BBQ sauce and grill until charred and caramelized. The result is a slightly sweet, summer-worthy skewer made to be served at any BBQ, camping trip, or casual summer dinner.
We love this combination of flavors and textures, but like most of skewer recipes, you can get creative with these. Add your favorite veggies, or switch up the sauce with some red pepper flakes and honey. We love these served plain with our other favorite grilled veggies, but these skewers would also be perfect over rice.
