Smokey Dogs Recipes

LIT'L SMOKIES® MUMMY DOGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Unroll dough, separate at perforations, creating 4 rectangles. Press perforations to seal.
• With a knife or pizza cutter cut each rectangle lengthwise into 8 strips making a total of 32 strips. Wrap one strip of dough around each Lit'l Smokies® stretching dough slightly to look like bandages, leaving tip exposed to create face. Place on ungreased cookie sheet.
• Bake 12 to 14 minutes or until golden brown. Draw features on tip of Lit'l Smokies® to create face. Serve with mustard or ketchup, if desired.

BACON WRAPPED SMOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Refrigerate 2/3 of the bacon until needed. It is easier to wrap the wieners with cold bacon. Wrap each cocktail wiener with a piece of bacon and secure with a toothpick. Place on a large baking sheet. Sprinkle brown sugar generously over all.
• Bake for 40 minutes in the preheated oven, until the sugar is bubbly. To serve, place the wieners in a slow cooker and keep on the low setting.

SLOW COOKER COCKTAIL SMOKIES

Steps:

• Combine grape jelly and barbeque sauce in a slow cooker. Stir in the miniature smoked sausage links. Cook on High, until heated through, 2 to 3 hours.

SMOKY BBQ BACON-WRAPPED DOGS

Steps:

• Heat grill. Combine barbecue sauce, honey and 1 tablespoon of the vinegar in small bowl. Combine mayonnaise, lemon juice and remaining 1/2 tablespoon vinegar in another small bowl.
• Combine brown sugar, paprika, cumin and chile powder in shallow dish. Press hot dogs into seasoning to coat; wrap each with 1 bacon strip. Insert toothpick in each end to secure bacon.
• Grill hot dogs, covered, over medium-low heat or coals 12 to 15 minutes or until bacon is browned and hot dogs are heated through, turning every 2 to 3 minutes to evenly brown bacon. Place buns on grill during last 1 to 2 minutes of cooking to toast. Remove toothpicks; serve hot dogs in buns with sauces on side.
