South Dakota Sunshine and a recipe

The sun is shining brightly today and we're supposed to get to 25 ABOVE zero--that'll feel like a heat wave! We're fortunate that the wind isn't blowing--northern South Dakota is having a ground blizzard--Interstate 29 is closed from Watertown to North Dakota and the news is reporting about 150 motorists stranded on the interstate!


Found this recipe this morning and am going to try it for the Super Bowl potluck at Gibby's on Sunday.


Sideline Smokies
1 (16 oz. package) bacon
1 (14 oz. package) little smokies
1 cup brown sugar
Preheat oven to 350. Line a baking sheet or jelly roll pan with tin foil. Using kitchen scissors cut the bacon into thirds. No need to cut each individual piece; cut the whole slab at one time. Wrap each cut piece of bacon around a smokie and secure with a toothpick. After you have wrapped all of the smokies, place them on the baking sheet and sprinkle brown sugar on top of each. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the brown sugar has melted. Serve immediately or keep warm in slow cooker. Makes 48 appetizers.
