Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds cocktail franks (mini hot dogs)
- 1 cup ketchup
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 cup water
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the ketchup, brown sugar, honey, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, and water. Whisk together until the ingredients are well blended.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the sauce to a simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, for about 5 minutes.
Add the cocktail franks to the saucepan and stir to coat them evenly in the sauce.
Lower the heat to medium-low, cover the saucepan, and let the franks simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure they are covered with the sauce and heated thoroughly.
Once the franks are heated through and coated in the thickened sauce, transfer them to a serving dish and insert toothpicks for easy serving.
Serve warm and enjoy these delicious party appetizers!
