How to Make Pineapple Brown Sugar Mississippi Lil' Smokies Bites
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, pineapple juice, soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using). Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
  2. Place the Lil' Smokies sausages in your slow cooker. Pour the delicious pineapple glaze over the sausages, ensuring they are well-coated for maximum flavor.
  3. Gently fold in the pineapple chunks, mixing them with the sausages and glaze. This addition creates delightful bursts of flavor!
  4. Cover your slow cooker and set it to low for 4 hours or high for 2 hours. Stir occasionally until the sausages are heated through and the sauce is bubbly and inviting.
  5. Once cooked, serve the bites warm with toothpicks for easy snacking. Watch them disappear as guests savor every tasty morsel!
