Ingredients
- 1 pound baby potatoes
- 2 tablespoons salted butter, softened to almost melting
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- ½ teaspoon crushed rosemary
- 1 10-ounce package APPLEGATE ORGANICS® THE GREAT ORGANIC UNCURED BEEF HOT DOG®
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- Ground black pepper
Instructions
- If you are using wooden skewers, soak them for 30 minutes to an hour.
- Boil the baby potatoes for 15 minutes in salted water until they are soft, but not so soft that they fall apart when you insert the skewers. Drain and rinse with cold water.
- Meanwhile, preheat a grill to medium heat. Mix together the butter with the garlic and rosemary. Cut each hot dog into thirds.
- Make skewers by threading 1 piece of hot dog, a potato, another piece of hot dog, another potato, and the final hot dog piece. Repeat with the remaining hot dogs and potatoes.
- Spoon the garlic butter over the potatoes and sprinkle the salt and black pepper all over the potatoes. Grill the skewers, flipping once, for 6 minutes total.
