### Drunken Wienies
**Ingredients:**
– 1 package cocktail sausages
– 1 cup ketchup
– 1/2 cup brown sugar
– 1/4 cup bourbon
– 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
– 1 teaspoon mustard
– 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Green onions, thinly sliced (for garnish)
**Instructions:**
1. In a large skillet or saucepan, combine the ketchup, brown sugar, bourbon, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine over medium heat.
2. Once the sauce is simmering, add the cocktail sausages to the skillet. Make sure each sausage is coated with the sauce.
3. Reduce the heat to low and let the sausages simmer for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally. The sauce will thicken, and the flavors will meld together beautifully.
4. Keep an eye on the sausages to ensure they don’t stick to the bottom of the skillet. If the sauce becomes too thick, you can add a splash of water to thin it out.
5. Once the sausages are heated through and the sauce has reached your desired consistency, remove the skillet from heat.
6. Transfer the Drunken Wienies to a serving dish and garnish with thinly sliced green onions for a pop of freshness and color.
7. Serve the sausages hot, either with toothpicks for easy snacking or alongside other party favorites. Your guests will be amazed at the irresistible combination of flavors in this simple yet satisfying dish.
Whether you’re hosting a gathering with friends or simply craving a delicious snack, Drunken Wienies are the perfect choice. The slightly sweet, tangy sauce paired with the smoky sausages creates a mouthwatering treat that is sure to please any crowd.
