Ingredients

  • 3 (14oz) packages miniature smoked sausages e or cocktail sausages
  • ½ cup of your favorite bbq sauce
  • ¼ cup chili sauce
  • ¾ cup grape jelly

Instructions

  • In a medium-sized bowl, combine bbq sauce, chili sauce, and grape jelly until well combined.
  • Place the miniature smoked sausages in the slow cooker.
  • Pour the sauce mixture over the sausages, ensuring that each sausage is coated evenly.
  • Gently stir the sausages to ensure they are well coated with the sauce.
  • Set the slow cooker to low heat and cook for 2-3 hours. This slow cooking time allows the flavors to meld and the sausages to absorb the delicious sauce.
  • If possible, stir the sausages occasionally during the cooking process to ensure even coating with the sauce.
  • Once the sausages are cooked through and have absorbed the flavors of the sauce, you can keep the slow cooker on the warm setting until you're ready to serve.
  • Just before serving, you can garnish with chopped fresh parsley or green onions for a pop of color and added freshness.
  • Provide toothpicks or small skewers for easy serving. Your Slow Cooker Sweet and Tangy Grape Jelly BBQ Little Smokies are ready to be enjoyed!

Notes

Tips

  • Adjust the cooking time based on your slow cooker. Cooking times can vary, so check for doneness and flavor absorption as you approach the 3-4 hour mark.
  • If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can transfer the cooked sausages and sauce to a saucepan on the stovetop and simmer for a few minutes until it reaches your desired consistency.
