Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 Degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. (For an alternate cooking method try bacon wrapped smokies in air fryer)

Step 2

Wrap each smokie with a bacon piece, overlapping ends, then securing with a toothpick.

Step 3

Mix brown sugar and cayenne pepper in a shallow bowl then firmly press each smokie in mixture, coating generously.

Step 4

Place in a single layer on prepared pan and bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes or until bacon is browned. Flip the sausages and continue to cook another 20-30 minutes or until bacon is browned on the second side.

Step 5

Remove from oven, and serve. CAUTION: These little buggers will be HOT, in more ways than one, so a little cooldown period is advised.
