These bacon wrapped smokies are cocktail sausages wrapped in bacon, then coated in brown sugar and spices and baked to perfection. An easy appetizer option that's great for feeding a large crowd.

Ingredients

  • 12 ounces little smokies
  • 1 pound bacon (do not use thick cut bacon)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar (I use light brown sugar)
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • cooking spray
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a sheet pan with cooking spray.

  2. 2

    Place the brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder and pepper in a bowl. Stir to combine.

  3. 3

    Cut each slice of bacon into thirds.

  4. 4

    Wrap each little smokie in a piece of bacon, then roll the smokie in the brown sugar mixture.

  5. 5

    Place a toothpick through the little smokie to secure the bacon.

  6. 6

    Repeat the process with the remaining smokies. Place them all on the sheet pan.

  7. 7

    Bake for 15 minutes. Flip the smokies over, then bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until bacon is crispy.

  8. 8

    Place the smokies on a serving plate. Remove the toothpicks if desired. Sprinkle with parsley, then serve.
