1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet or jelly roll pan with tin foil.

Using kitchen scissors cut your bacon into thirds. There’s no need to cut each individual piece; cut the whole slab at one time.

Wrap 1/3 of each bacon slice around a smokie and secure it with a toothpick. After you have wrapped all of the smokies, place them on the baking sheet and sprinkle brown sugar on top of each smokie.
4

Bake sausages for 40-45 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the brown sugar has melted.
5

Serve immediately or keep warm in a crockpot. Makes around 48 smokies.
