Description
Delicious little smokies coated in a sweet and spicy pineapple brown sugar glaze, perfect for gatherings and cozy evenings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package of lil’ smokies
- 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Mississippi-style seasoning (or a mix of cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper)
- 1/2 cup BBQ sauce (optional for extra flavor)
Instructions
- Prepare the Slow Cooker: Begin by placing the lil’ smokies at the bottom of your slow cooker.
- Mix the Pineapple & Brown Sugar: In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of pineapple chunks and 1/2 cup of brown sugar. Stir until the pineapple is coated and the sugar begins to dissolve slightly.
- Season the Smokies: Sprinkle the Mississippi-style seasoning evenly over the smokies for a flavorful kick.
- Combine Ingredients: Pour the sweet pineapple mixture over the smokies. Use your spatula to gently stir everything together, ensuring even coating.
- Cook to Perfection: Cover the slow cooker and set it to low. Allow cooking for 3-4 hours or until all ingredients are heated through and sticky.
- Serve and Enjoy: Once cooked, serve warm right from the slow cooker for everyone to enjoy!
Notes
Consider incorporating a splash of soy sauce with the pineapple mixture for extra flavor. For crispier edges, transfer to a baking dish and broil for a few minutes after slow cooking.
