How to Make Awesome Nippy Franks Cocktail Wieners

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup ketchup, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Add 1 pound cocktail wieners to the sauce mixture, stirring to coat evenly.
  3. Transfer the mixture to a slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 1 hour.
  4. Uncover the slow cooker and continue cooking on low for an additional 30 minutes, or until the wieners are heated through and the sauce has thickened slightly. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  5. Serve warm. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
