Easy Bacon Wrapped Sausages are the ultimate crowd-pleasing appetizer—savory, smoky, and just the right amount of crispy. These bite-sized treats come together with minimal effort and maximum flavor. Perfect for game day, BBQs, or holiday gatherings, they disappear fast, so make plenty!

Helpful Tips

Use thin-cut bacon – It cooks faster and crisps up nicely without overcooking the sausage.
Secure with toothpicks – This keeps the bacon in place while cooking and makes them easier to serve.
Use your favorite sausage – Use any sausages you like. My favorite brand is Lit’l Smokies® Smoked Cocktail Sausages. These come in a cheese-filled version too.

Ingredients

8 slices bacon cut in half horizontally
16 small sausages

Instructions

Wrap half a slice of bacon firmly around each sausage.
Place the sausage, with the end of the bacon facing down, on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper.
Cook at 375° F(190°C) for 15 minutes or until the bacon is crisp, turning them over halfway through cooking to ensure the bacon gets evenly cooked.

Notes

You can baste the sausages with honey near the end of cooking for a sweet version, or with hot sauce for a spicy version.
