Bacon Brown Sugar Smokies
Description
This recipe uses small beef smokies wrapped individually in halved bacon strips, which are then rolled in packed brown sugar ensuring a sweet crust. The bacon end is secured with a toothpick to maintain its shape during baking. Baking on a foil-lined sheet at 350 degrees allows the bacon to cook evenly and crisp up while the brown sugar melts and caramelizes, creating a glossy coating over the bacon and smokie.
The treats develop a combination of smoky meat flavor, crispy bacon texture, and rich sweetness from the brown sugar. They are arranged with enough space to avoid steaming and ensure thorough browning. The baking time of about 18-20 minutes produces a bubbly sugar glaze and crisp bacon that holds well as finger food.
Ingredients
- 1 package Beef Smokies (or other mini hot dogs)
- 1 pound Bacon , cut in half
- 3/4 cup brown sugar , packed
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Line baking sheet with heavy duty foil (or two sheets of standard foil).
- Cut bacon slices in half (vertically, not horizontally so they are shorter, not skinnier and longer).
- Wrap each strip around a little smokie sausage.
- Roll in the brown sugar, packing on the sugar onto the ends and pierce the end of the bacon slice with a toothpick to hold it closed.
- Place each rolled smokie on the baking sheet (do not crowd).
- Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the bacon is crisp and the brown sugar is all bubbly.
