How To Make Bacon Wrapped smokies:
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. The parchment paper will make cleaning up a breeze as the sugar will burn onto the pan with bacon grease.
Slice the bacon strips into thirds.
**Pro-tip** Use meat scissors to cut the bacon. It’s easy to do and cuts the bacon slices cleaner than a knife sometimes.
Roll each smokie in a strip of bacon.
Stick it with a toothpick.
Spread the assembled bacon-wrapped smokies on the cookie sheet topped with parchment paper.
Sprinkle the smokies with brown sugar.
Bake in the oven for about 30 minutes.

These sound so good, but at the same time so bad! I bet the brown sugar and sausage combination really works well.

I’ve never met a bacon recipe that I didn’t like…these look so wonderful!! I’ve recently been having heartburn issues too. Not often, but when it hits, it’s like a freight train. I just bought some Zantac yesterday, and I’m hoping that fixes it. Heartburn is NO FUN.
Oooh, these sound so good! Pinned!
