If I didn’t make at least 8 of these little bacon-wrapped sausages PER PERSON on Christmas day, I’m pretty sure there’d be a riot in the Kitchen Sanctuary household.I usually arrange a few around the turkey - which are gone in 10 seconds. The person who finds a stray one hiding underneath the turkey has to fight off everyone else for it. Then halfway through dinner (when the sprouts and other veggies are finally being consumed) I quietly ask if ‘anyone wants any more pigs-in-blankets?’, as I have a few spare left in the oven. Then there’s the quick stampede to the kitchen to get them, before we can peacefully resume dinner.
I could serve them all up at once, but where would be the fun in that 😁
Bacon - I use strips of smoked streaky bacon for the most flavourSausages - I go with good quality little cocktail sausages - because serving up 30 regular-sized sausages along with all of the other Christmas dinner dishes would be ridiculous (wouldn’t it?…)Honey - totally optional, but this gives them a lovely touch of stickiness
Serve them up with your Turkey dinner, or serve them as party food - just stick a cocktail stick in each.They taste great warm or cold.
