Brown Sugar Smokies

Today was an incredibly full day, but I had to squeeze in this one post before I hit the sheets.  But only because it's so good, yet so so easy!  This appetizer is always the biggest hit any time it is served, yet it's always the easiest thing I make.  Needless to say, it's a win win.

A word to the wise: if you make these once you're basically agreeing to make them for every get together for the next 10 years....they really are that good!  For a party of 20 people I did 3 times the recipe below and they STILL were all gobbled down.

Brown Sugar Smokies
1 lb bacon
1 16-oz package smokie sausages
Brown Sugar, to taste

Preheat oven to 350 F.  Pull all bacon out of package and slice strips into thirds.  Wrap one small bacon strip around each smokie.  Secure with tooth pick.  Sprinkle liberally with brown sugar (I probably do a little too much).

*Tip:  Wrap the smokies the night prior, refrigerate, and then all you have to do

is pop them in the oven right before your guests arrive.

Bake approximately 20 minutes, or until sugar is melted and bacon is crispy.
