Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package (14 oz) little smokies sausages
- 1 package (12 oz) bacon, cut into thirds
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top for easy cleanup.
- Wrap the Little Smokies: Take each little smokie and wrap a piece of bacon around it. Secure with a toothpick to hold the bacon in place.
- Prepare the Glaze: In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
- Coat the Bacon-Wrapped Little Smokies: Place the bacon-wrapped sausages on the prepared wire rack. Sprinkle the brown sugar mixture evenly over the wrapped little smokies.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the sugar has caramelized. You may want to flip the little smokies halfway through for even crispiness.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. These Bacon-Wrapped Little Smokies are the perfect appetizer for your next party or game day!
Notes
- For an extra touch, drizzle with barbecue sauce before serving for even more flavor.
- Keep an eye on them while baking to ensure the bacon doesn’t burn, especially if you choose to flip them.
- Toothpicks can be removed before serving to make them easier to eat.
