Notes
1 Add a sprinkle of cayenne pepper or a dash of BBQ rub for a smoky kick that balances the sweetness of the brown sugar.
2 Prepare the bacon-wrapped smokies ahead of time and refrigerate them, so all you have to do is bake them fresh before serving.
3 Keep them warm in a slow cooker on low heat during your party to make sure they stay crispy yet tender.
