Combine the barbecue sauce and Worcestershire sauce. Reserve 1 tablespoon of the mixture for the queso sauce.
Place a hot dog on a flat surface.

Repeat with remaining dogs.
Carefully thread dogs onto the skewers.
Place hot dogs over a hot grill. Cook for a few minutes then rotate.
Once the dogs are nearly done, with a nice char, brush with the barbecue sauce mix and grill a little longer.
Serve dogs with the queso sauce, for dipping.
For the queso sauce
Place Velveeta and milk into a small sauce pan over medium heat.
Stir often until the cheese has melted.
Reduce the heat and stir in the tomatoes, reserved barbecue and Worcestershire mix, and hot sauce, if desired.
Keep warm until ready to use.
