Heather's Lil' Wieners

So when the Poulton side of the family gets together for the holidays you can bet that this dish will show up. My cousin-in-law Heather brings these tasty treats to tide us over until dinner is served. Everyone is thankful and you will be too this holiday season. Just note that this recipe is not fat friendly.

1 lb. bacon
little smokes
1/3 c. dry mustard
3/4 c. brown sugar

Roll the smokes in a strip of bacon and secure with a toothpick, continue until bacon is gone. Put into a slow cooker along with the remaining ingredients and heat on low until they are cooked through, stirring occasionally so spices mix well. Enjoy!
