Method

  • Fire up. Warm your crock pot.
  • Cook. Dump in the grape jelly, the mustard and 12 ounces (355 ml) of the barbecue sauce. Stir until the jelly has melted and everything is blended well. Once this has warmed through, taste to see if you need to add the remaining 4 ounces of the barbecue sauce. It should be sweet and tangy. If you wish you can adjust it with a splash of vinegar or hot sauce or a pinch of salt.
  • Add the cocktail wieners. Stir well and simmer for 1 hour on low.
  • Serve. Serve warm with toothpicks on the side.
