Never thought I'd be saying this, but if you're looking for a heathier choice at your next bar-be-que;  Choose a hot dog over the chicken. Really!  A Kansas State University Study found that hot dogs are nearly free of certain chemical compounds called H-C-A's that are known to cause cancer.  The same could not be said for rotisserie-grilled chicken.  The study found high levels of H-C-A in the skin of the chicken.  Of course, piling all the extras on the hot dog is not going to do you any favors.  Just skip the  chili, cheese, pizza toppings, chocolate sauce and whatever you put on the hot dog and you should be fine.
