Slow Cooker Cocktail Smokies

(16 ounce) packages miniature smoked sausage links

(8 ounce) jar grape jelly

(12 ounce) bottle barbeque sauce

Combine grape jelly and barbeque sauce in a slow cooker. Stir in the miniature smoked sausage links. Cook on High, until heated through, 2 to 3 hours.


Great and simple. A word of warning: Do NOT use a smokey BBQ sauce with lil smokeys.  Use a sweet bbq sauce.

I have been making these for years.  The only thing I do differently is mix equal parts grape jelly, BBQ sauce and ketchup.  This also works just as well with cut up beef hot dogs.  Adults and kids alike love these.  I love them especially because they're fast, easy and can be prepared in advance.

I have been making these for parties for years!  People can't seem to get enough of these.  I always use apricot jelly but I'm sure grape works just fine too.  These little things seem to be addictive no matter how you make them.

I have been making this for 15 years. My x-wife had this recipe. Funny to see it again here. Nobody believs me when I say I used grape jelly in it. I take it to pot lucks all the time and it is one of the first dishes to go. Just took it to a b day party last month and when my girlfriend saw me putting grape jelly in with the links a sause, she grosed out and said no way she would eat it, and that I ruined the links she spent all that money on. After hearing all the great revievs from party goers she decided to give it a shot. She loved it!

u can also make this with a jar of chili sauce and a can of thanksgiving cranberry jelly.  both are also good with little cocktail sized meatballs.  i too agree how addictive this recipe is!

A household hit for any occaision! I use equal parts of grape jelly and BBQ sauce. I also make this with prepared meatballs from the grociery store. This is also good using both meatballs and lil smokies. Just make sure the sauce covers the meat. This gives a little more variety when making for a party.

This is in the crockpot as we speak. It's not a holiday without these wonderful little gems. I did saute a little onion and garlic in butter, then added the grape jelly and my own homemade barbeque sauce and peppered it up a bit before pouring over the Lil' Smokies. OMNOM.

I was very skeptical about this recipe so I tested it first.  Funny how the taste changes as it cooks.  After an hour the smoky flavor from the bbq sauce was so overwhelming I thought this was a big mistake but after 2 hours the smokiness was slight and balanced and delicious.  I couldn’t believe it.  I reheated them the next day in the microwave oven and they were still perfect.   Strange but this works !

I love these little yummy appetizers and have eaten many sauce variations but my favorite is a combination of grape jelly catsup pineapple a little sugar and......diced jalapenos!

These did NOT taste good. I used Famous Dave's Sweet N Sassy with grape jelly over miniature buffalo sausages. I wasted a bunch of sausages and had to come up with a "plan B" for my party. Will use a recipe with ingredients that aren't so bizarre. The grape jelly was just too much.
