Sweet and Sour Lil Smokies is cooked in your slow cooker so it will be ready when you are.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 3 hours

Total Time: 3 hours, 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 20-ounce cans pineapple chunks, drained, reserve the juice
  • 1 large package little smokies
  • 2 green peppers, chopped
  • 1 tsp ginger
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 4 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • splash of white wine

Preparation:

Add the pineapple chunks and smokies to your slow cooker.

In a saucepan, combine remaining ingredients with the reserved pineapple juice.

Simmer until the peppers are tender. Add 2 to 3 tablespoons cornstarch to thicken. (Add as much as you need to get it to a thickness you like.) Pour this over the pineapples and sausages. Cook on hot for an hour, then low for a couple hours, however long you want to wait to eat it. You just want to heat it all up, really.
