- Once all smokies have been wrapped, vertically line the pigs in a blanket around the side of the pan (seam side Inward) and continue to do so until the entire pan is filled and pigs in a blanket are snug, but not too tightly packed together.
- Tightly cover pan with foil and bake for about 30 minutes.
- Uncover pigs in a blanket and continue to bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the top is nicely browned.
- Remove from heat and allow to loaf cool, about 10 minutes.
