These were a HUGE hit! I made mine a couple of different ways. I did two skewers of Lil' Smokies and the rest I didn't skewer or toothpick at all. I found that cutting the bacon slices into fourths worked best and that the bacon wrapped tightly around the smokies tended to stay put without toothpicks. I coated both the bacon AND the smokies with brown sugar before wrapping them. I'd definitely recommend turning them halfway through cooking, or broiling them on each side quickly to get them to crisp up nicely. The crispy bacon and carmelized sugar helps hold everything together and keeps them from being quite so messy. I'll definitely be making these again when we have guests, and I will serve with a honey mustard sauce and a tangy BBQ sauce for dipping, though they're excellent alone.
