Roll a strip of bacon around each of...

• 2 packs (12 oz each) Lil Smokies cocktail sausages

Set each one seam side down on a baking sheet, pressing it up against the last one.

Note: Packing them tightly holds the bacon in place, so they cook without unrolling.

• 1/2 cup barbecue sauce

Brush the sauce evenly over everything with a pastry brush.

Bake

Bake 30–35 minutes, until the bacon is cooked through and crispy at the edges.
