My family loved it! I again (as always) cheated! We didn't have enough ketchup, so we used barbeque sauce as well. We used Evan Williams whiskey w/ the full amount 1st & then the next day I just added however much I felt like. We let the dogs cook for a long time in the crock pot. We used little smokies the 1st day. The 2nd day I used some little smokies, cut up smoked sausage & 4 hot dogs.

These are awesome. Our family recipe just adds 4 green onion tops chopped to the recipe & said, "The cheaper the hotdog, the better they turn out." Kids shmids, the alcohol cooks out. We always ate them when my parents served them at parties. Can't remember having gotten drunk once.

I put 1 C kethcup, 1 C BBQ sauce, 2 T whiskey and 1/4 C brown sugar in my crock pot along with 2 dozen of the cheapest wieners. I cooked on high for 1 hour and they were done. I took this to a potluck where there were lots of kids (hence the cheap wieners) and to my surprise, the adults loved it. I had several even ask for the recipe. It was so easy, the wieners stayed really moist, and you don't need other condiments (just buns) so I'm rating it 5.

These were incredible! I added just a touch of an asian 'chili with garlic' sauce, just to give it a bit of kick. Really, really yummy and so simple to make. Thanks for the recipe!

We've had this recipe in our family for years. What we do is equal amounts of ketchup or BBQ sauce, whiskey (Captain Morgan's is great, too!!!), and brown sugar. Heat over low for about 45 minutes until the sauce is THICK THICK THICK!!!! Then, add cut up dogs or cocktail franks (kielbasa, little smokies are good, too) and cook over low stirring frequently for about 2 hours. Sauce should be VERY THICK. This dish is always empty at every family gathering.

Way too too much ketchup! I made this for a 2008 New Year's Party; I am glad I tasted it before I took it to the party. I tossed this one straight down the garage disposal; a total waste of good Jack Daniels. I will try this again, but instead of ketchup, I will try a barbecue sauce instead and twice as many wieners.

oh my gosh are these good!!! I used a 1/4 to 1/2 cup whiskey and they went so fast. I also put my sausage balls in the sauce. We had some leftover bacon from breakfast and my husband wrapped the little smokies with the cooked bacon and then put it in the sauce. Next time, I will make more bacon because YUM YUM

Everyone enjoyed "Drunk Dogs". I agree that 1/4 cup of whiskey is better than recipe amount given. As suggested I used Jack Daniels. I tried to find little brats (my husband is a cheesehead from Wisc) but not in any stores around my home so got two pkgs of Little Smokies. Only put 1-lb in the slow cooker. Next time will do 2-lbs at outset as there is indeed enough sauce and people won't be disappointed when they go back for more and the Smokies are all gone. I've prepared other similar recipes for potlucks but didn't really care for them personally. That's why I was looking for something better when I found this one. I have to admit it, I was one of those disappointed when I went to get a few more and they were gone. But then, these are so easy to prepare I can toss everything in the slow cooker for myself anytime I want.

I was looking for a recipe that was close to my Mom's and this was it...I added an extra 1/2 cup of bourbon as well as 1/2 cup of BBQ sauce and let it simmer for a few hours on low. I also HIGHLY recommend trying it with kielbasa cut into chunks....I put both kielbasa and cocktail wieners in... It was a smashing success! The best part was that even when the meat got low, I was able to add another package and let it simmer for an hour or so to replenish.

double the recipe and used little beef smokies - kept warm in a crockpot for 7 hours - serve with wooden skewers - easier than tooth picks. I also added more Jack Daniels as others suggested - very good and I don't normally care for sausage.
