Crock-pot Bacon-Wrapped Hot dogs

Author Sonja

Ingredients

  • 2 packages of standard sized hot dogs we use the healthiest we can find
  • one 12 oz. package of nitrate-free bacon
  • maple syrup or honey about 1/4 cup, give or take
  • enough water to cover the bottom of the crock-pot

Instructions

  1. Place 2 T of maple syrup and water in the bottom of a 2-4 quart crock-pot, swirling it around to mix.
  2. Cut hot dogs into thirds.
  3. Take a piece of the cut hot dogs and one piece of bacon. Stretch and wrap the bacon around the piece of hot dog, securing it with a toothpick. Cut off the excess bacon. I can wrap about three pieces of hot dogs with one piece of bacon by stretching it.
  4. Repeat with the remaining hot dogs and bacon.
  5. Carefully place the bacon-wrapped hot dogs in the bottom of the crock-pot. You can stack them if needed as I have shown above. Pour desired amount of maple syrup over the top.
  6. Cover and cook on high for 2-3 hours, or on low for 4-5 hours, or until bacon is thoroughly cooked and hot dogs are completely warmed. **For more cooking tips on this recipe, see notes above.
