Buffalo Chicken
Buffalo ChickenHey guys I know we’re heading into winter, but just looking at this tasty grilled buffalo chicken skewers don’t you just want to break out the grill? We enjoy grilling year-round. I’m thinking everyone else must be a little south of the snow belt than me, right? So if we can do it you can too!
Truth be told I’m trying to be brave. Ahhh…. winter… right around the corner!
Tips for grilling in the winter!
- Use a gas grill. It’s easier to start and when you’re done grilling you can just flip a switch and be done with it!
- Because it’s cold outside, keep in mind you’ll use more propane. Have plenty on hand for winter grilling.
- Have everything ready to go for one trip outside. Opening and closing the doors (and the grill) will let the heat out quickly!
- Only grill in well-ventilated areas DO NOT move the grill into a closed garage.
Bundle up, bring a beverage and have fun with it! This meal doesn’t take long at all to grill!

Grilling year-round is awesome, and these look so flavorful!
We grill all year as well! Love these and can’t wait to try them!!
So glad you brave the elements with me!
Ha ha! I’ve never thought of grilling in the winter before, but why not? Really good tips (that I would not have thought of, like needing more propane). You really are the expert!
We could only grill a few months if we didn’t brave the elements!
The flavor on these kabobs is perfection.
Gotta love the heat!
Is there anything better than buffalo chicken?! Made these just using our little indoor grilling thing and it worked perfectly.
So glad you enjoyed them!
What kind of red sauce?? Making these this weekend. Thx
I used Frank’s Red Hot sauce for this recipe.
