Notes
- Little smokies: Famous things usually go by many names. You may know them as cocktail wieners, cocktail franks, lil smokies, or as my grandma says "baby wursts." They're small smoked sausages sold in 12- to 14-ounce packages at the store, in the deli section. (I've even heard that Costco sells them in 3-pound bags, and Trader Joe's carries them sometimes on a seasonal basis.)
- Barbecue sauce: Sweet Baby Rays is my personal fave, so much so that I even made a copycat Sweet Baby Rays recipe. But you can use any tomato-based BBQ sauce, as long as it isn't a vinegary, Carolina-style sauce.
- Yield: 1 pound of cocktail wieners has about 40 sausages. With 5 sausages per serving, you can get about 8 servings per pound (assuming you are serving this at a party as part of a buffet with other choices).
- Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
