Scale
Gather these ingredients to make your Crockpot Little Smokies:
- 2 (14 oz) packages of Little Smokies cocktail sausages
- 1 cup barbecue sauce (your choice of flavor)
- ½ cup honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Prepare the Sauce:
- Mix the Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the barbecue sauce, honey, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Stir until everything is well combined.
- Taste and Adjust: Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more honey for sweetness or more mustard for tang.
Cook the Little Smokies:
- Add to Crockpot: Place the Little Smokies in the Crockpot and pour the prepared sauce over the sausages. Stir gently to ensure the sausages are evenly coated in the sauce.
- Set to Low: Cover the Crockpot and cook on low for 4-6 hours, stirring occasionally if desired. The sausages will soak up the sauce and become tender and flavorful.
- Serve: Once the sausages are heated through and the sauce is thickened, stir again, then serve directly from the Crockpot.
