  • 1 stick Butter
  • 2 cups Brown Sugar

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F.
  2. Cut the bacon into thirds and wrap each smokie (small sausage) tightly in a piece of bacon.
  3. Place all the wrapped smokies in a single layer in a baking dish.
  4. Melt the stick of butter in a saucepan, then add 1 cup of brown sugar and stir until well mixed.
  5. Pour the butter and brown sugar mixture over the smokies and bacon.
  6. Sprinkle the remaining cup of brown sugar evenly over the top.
Baking
  1. Bake for about 15-20 minutes, then increase the oven temperature to 400°F and bake for an additional 5 minutes or until the bacon is crispy.
Serving

Notes

For extra flavor, add spices like paprika or black pepper to the brown sugar mixture. Make sure to wrap the bacon tightly around the smokies for even cooking. For a healthier option, try using turkey bacon.
