Ingredients
1package little smokies14 ounces
12slicesbaconabout 1 pound of bacon
1/4cupbrown sugar
1/3cupBBQ sauce
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Cut each slice of bacon into thirds.
12 slices bacon
Wrap each sausage sausage in bacon and place it in a baking dish. Use a toothpick to secure the bacon.
1 package little smokies
Sprinkle the brown sugar over all the sausages, pressing into the top of the bacon pieces.
1/4 cup brown sugar
Bake them in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then remove the pan and brush with BBQ sauce.
1/3 cup BBQ sauce
Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes.
Allow the sausages to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Use thin bacon so it crisps up nicely without worrying about overcooked sausages.
You can air fry these, but you must cook them in batches. In the air fryer, cook them at 390 degrees F for 7 minutes, brush them with BBQ sauce, and cook for 3 more minutes. Don't overcrowd them, or the bacon won't get crispy.
