Cocktail Sausages

Everyone sometimes needs to take something somewhere. Right? We've already discussed numerous foods suitable for feeding the family after a funeral and covered dish events. But what about when you need something yummy to take to a social event that requires snack or finger foods?

Here in the South Saturdays revolve around football. Period. It you aren't at the game, you're expected to watch it on television. Parties are numerous. It's generally better to attend a party where pretty much everyone roots for the same team. Things can easily get out of hand otherwise. But that's another story.

These cocktail sausages are wonderful. And you'll get a good laugh when you look at the ingredients. Who knew that grape jelly could be a secret ingredient? Get the cheapest jar on the shelf. This is one time when quality really doesn't matter.

Cocktail Sausages

1 lb. cocktail sausages
1 12-oz. bottle chili sauce
1 16-oz. jar grape jelly

Boil and drain sausages. Mix chili sauce and gape jelly in a saucepan and heat to simmering. Add sausages. Use those little toothpicks for serving. These should be served hot.

Another tip is to use a crock pot. It helps keep everything warm while the party goes on. Just be sure to double or triple the recipe. You'll need it!
