Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 oz cocktail sausages
- 12 oz beer
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
In a medium saucepan or skillet, combine the beer, brown sugar, ketchup, soy sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir together until well combined.
Heat the mixture over medium heat, bringing it to a gentle simmer. Stir occasionally to dissolve the brown sugar completely.
While the sauce is heating, rinse and drain the cocktail sausages to remove any residual packaging liquid.
Add the cocktail sausages to the simmering sauce and stir to coat them evenly.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and let the sausages cook in the sauce for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking and to ensure the sausages are well coated.
Once the sausages are plump and the sauce has slightly thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat.
Transfer the Drunken Dogs to a serving dish or keep them warm in a slow cooker set on the 'low' or 'warm' setting until ready to serve.
Serve with toothpicks for easy snacking. Enjoy!
