Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 ounces cocktail wieners or little smokies
- 1 cup ketchup
- 1 cup grape jelly
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the ketchup, grape jelly, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder over medium heat.
Stir the mixture continuously until the ingredients are well combined and the sauce is smooth, about 3-4 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and add the cocktail wieners to the saucepan.
Stir well to coat the wieners evenly with the sauce.
Cover the pan and simmer on low heat for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the wieners are heated through and the sauce thickens slightly.
Serve the cocktail wieners warm straight from the pan or transfer them to a slow cooker set to 'keep warm' for serving at a party.
