Steps
In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, combine butter, oil, hot sauce, honey, vinegar, brown sugar, and garlic.
Bring mixture to a simmer then reduce heat to low, stirring occasionally until thickened, about 7-10 minutes. Meanwhile, slice potatoes into 1-inch thick pieces then place into a 2-quart glass dish with 1/2 cup water.
Cover and microwave on high just until potatoes begin to get tender, about 7 minutes. Drain water, and spread potatoes across a jelly roll pan to steam dry.
Using skewers, thread potato pieces, dividing evenly among sticks. Using cooking spray, generously coat potatoes, then season with pepper, to taste.
Heat grill to 450 degrees then places kabobs on lightly oiled grates. Grill until golden and slightly charred, about 4-5 minutes per side.
Remove from heat and drizzle with glaze then sprinkle with celery and blue cheese. Serve immediately with dipping sauce, if desired.
In a small mixing bowl, combine sour cream, blue cheese, mayonnaise and garlic then serve.
