Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prep the Sauce

    In a medium-sized bowl, combine the BBQ sauce, honey, soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Lil Smokies

    In a large skillet or saucepan, add the Lil Smokies. Pour the prepared sauce mixture over the sausages, ensuring they are well-coated.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Smokies

    Heat the skillet over medium heat. Once hot, reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet. Allow the Lil Smokies to simmer in the sauce for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are heated through and the sauce is thickened.

  2. 4

    Serve

    Remove from heat and transfer the Lil Smokies to a serving dish. If desired, sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds for garnish. Serve warm with toothpicks for easy eating.
