Ingredients

  • 24 oz cocktail sausages
  • 12 oz beer
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan or skillet, combine the beer, brown sugar, ketchup, soy sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir together until well combined.

Step 2

Heat the mixture over medium heat, bringing it to a gentle simmer. Stir occasionally to dissolve the brown sugar completely.

Step 3

While the sauce is heating, rinse and drain the cocktail sausages to remove any residual packaging liquid.

Step 4

Add the cocktail sausages to the simmering sauce and stir to coat them evenly.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and let the sausages cook in the sauce for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking and to ensure the sausages are well coated.

Step 6

Once the sausages are plump and the sauce has slightly thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat.

Step 7

Transfer the Drunken Dogs to a serving dish or keep them warm in a slow cooker set on the 'low' or 'warm' setting until ready to serve.

Step 8

Serve with toothpicks for easy snacking. Enjoy!
