Ingredients
- 32 ounces Little smokies sausages
- 2 cups Barbecue sauce
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Smoked paprika
Directions
Step 1
1. Prepare your slow cooker by spraying the interior with non-stick cooking spray or lining it with a slow cooker liner for easier cleanup.
Step 2
2. Add the little smokies sausages directly to the slow cooker.
Step 3
3. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the barbecue sauce, brown sugar, honey, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Whisk until the ingredients are well integrated and the sauce is smooth.
Step 4
4. Pour the sauce mixture over the little smokies in the slow cooker. Use a spatula or spoon to gently toss the smokies, ensuring they are evenly coated with the sauce.
Step 5
5. Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on LOW for 3 hours, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.

6. After 3 hours, check to make sure the smokies are heated through and the sauce has thickened slightly. If needed, allow it to simmer uncovered for another 15-20 minutes to thicken further.
Step 7
7. Once done, switch the slow cooker to the WARM setting to keep the smokies hot for serving.
Step 8
8. Serve the slow-cooked smokies straight from the slow cooker or transfer them to a serving dish. They pair well with toothpicks or skewers for easy grabbing.
