Ingredients for Baked Bacon Wrapped Brown Sugar Smokies

  • 1 package (12 ounces) bacon, halved lengthwise
  • Sausages
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • Cinnamon Sugar
  • Toothpick

How to Make Baked Bacon Wrapped Brown Sugar Smokies

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar and cinnamon. Mix well.
  3. Wrap each smokie with a half-strip of bacon, securing with a toothpick if needed.
  4. Roll each bacon-wrapped smokie in the brown sugar mixture, ensuring it's evenly coated.
  5. Place the smokies on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the brown sugar is caramelized. You may need to rotate the baking sheet halfway through for even cooking.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving. Carefully remove toothpicks before eating.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
