These Bourbon Cocktail Wieners are not just another party snack; they are a flavorful indulgence that brings together sweet and savory tastes. The bourbon adds an unexpected kick that elevates the dish, making it a standout on any appetizer table.
Ingredients
- 1 pound of cocktail wieners
- 1 cup of barbecue sauce

Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the barbecue sauce, bourbon, brown sugar, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well until the sugar is dissolved and the sauce is smooth.
- Add the cocktail wieners to the sauce and stir until they are evenly coated.
- Transfer the wieners and sauce mixture to a slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 3-4 hours, stirring occasionally, until the wieners are heated through and the sauce is thickened.
