Step 1

Dice onion. Add that to a heavy pot with barbecue sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and bourbon. Stir to combine, then add little smokies and stir to coat.

Step 2

Turn heat to medium low and bring to a simmer (bubbles without true boiling). Cook, stirring periodically, for 20 minutes, then serve immediately with toothpicks.

Step 3

Alternatively, mix all ingredients in a crock pot and cook on low for 2-4 hours before serving.
