These Retro Pigs In A Blanket continue to be on the list of most popular appetizers! Simple is the word to use describing them, just two ingredients, yet so delicious and everyone wants them!
I served these with Zatarain’s Creole Mustard, but you can use any mustard.
Other sauces that would be delicious are:
- BBQ Sauce
- Cheese Sauce
- Ranch Dressing
- Spicy Mayo
- Maple Dijon
- Ketchup
- Chile Cheese Sauce
how do we make these?
I just use the Li’l Smokies for this recipe and a can of crescent rolls that I slice in half, making 16 triangles. Starting at the fat end I just roll up. When they’ve all been rolled up, I brush them with an egg wash and for these I sprinkled with Poppy Seeds. Sesame seeds would be great or the Everything Bagel seasoning would be delicious too! I cook them on a sheet pan lined with parchment to prevent burning the bottoms until they are golden brown.
This the perfect game day appetizer. This will be the first thing to go and you will wish you had made more!
what other sausages can be used?
- hot dogs
- smoked sausage
- chicken sausage links
- andouille
