What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Be Our Guest: Garlic Clove Little Smokies! I know people often wait for the holidays to serve this spicy little appetizer, but I recently discovered its popularity as a picnic basket companion. By making it ahead of time and storing it in a jar, it travels well. Add dill pickle chunks, bite-size cheese cubes, vegetable skewers, fresh fruit, chips, salsa, and double chocolate brownies. You’ll have the perfect portable picnic. Doesn’t everyone love finger foods?
GARLIC CLOVE LITTLE SMOKIES
Ingredients:
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup honey
1/2 cup catsup
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon roasted sesame seeds
14 ounces little smokies cocktail wieners
Fresh chives for garnish
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 250°. In a medium bowl, combine brown sugar, honey, catsup, soy sauce, garlic, red pepper flakes, and roasted sesame seeds. Mix well. Add cocktail wieners. Coat evenly. Transfer to a covered casserole dish. Bake for 4 hours, stirring occasionally. Garnish with roasted sesame seeds and fresh chives before serving.
FULL OF GOODNESS AND VERY TASTY, CHINA

I love these little smokies!
I used to put ’em in V-8 juice with spices the night before we went on a road trip to see a football game. Always good stuff.
Your ingredients are mouth watering. 🙂

Google it sometime. I believe it was because the brand name Heinz changed the spelling to “ketchup” that made it the popular name. Go figure. 😜

Thats always best. Here normally its tradition to eat garlic, but our people want to be more “citylike”. This forces them to deny this tradition to the max.

What a shame. I just snipped some garlic chives this morning and they smell glorious. I can’t wait to use them. 🌿🌱🍃
