Three Ways to Make Pigs in a Blanket, Already Perfect, Even Better Tuck your little piggies into a different blanket.

My most looked-forward-to appetizer at any casual party is pigs in a blanket. I expect to see them at least three times a year—Christmas Eve, New Year’s Eve and whatever Super Bowl party I attend. If they’re missing, I’ll have something to say about it. These petite bites blend sweet, buttery, wrapped-in-a-pressurized-cardboard-canister dough and a salty, smokey cocktail weenie in one dip-able morsel. Also, you can roll up about 40 of them for under $10, making them perfect for guests and hosts alike. It’s hard to improve on something flawless, so instead, I’d like to offer you a few new spins for your classic little piggies.

Scallion Pain d’Epi-tizer This is a stylistic love-child of French pain d’epin (wheat stalk bread) and Asian scallion hot dog buns, boasting all the flavor of our American sausage sweetheart. The shape of this bun is perfect to tear apart and dunk in the nearest sauce or, if you have a big heart, share with someone who’s worth it. The key to an appealing wheat stalk shape is to slice your dough-wrapped dog at an angle.

Little Smokie Chili Buckets

I am passionate about chili dogs. I believe that there should be a lever that releases hot chili right next to the ketchup and mustard at baseball stadium concession stands. I’m unlikely to realized this dream, so I took matters into my own hands with this party-friendly version. Feel free to top up on the chili or cheese at the end; the fillings settle down a bit in the oven.

Ingredients (Yield: 12 chili buckets):
12 pack King’s Hawaiian rolls
¾ -1 cup shredded cheddar
7.5 oz (½ can) of chili
12 little smokies (cut in half)

Pigs in blankets are sausages baked with a coat of bacon not pastry. What you have there, my friend, are sausage rolls.

I’m Polish and Ukie, with a little Prussian and we think Mongolian thrown in.

I have tried those.

They are tasty.

But, for my wife, I was trying to stick with the pastry wrapped sausage.

I add garlic and shaved orange rind to this recipe.......wonderful!

Everybody wants the recipe once they taste these....

[mylife]

sounds good to me! add a lil chili sauce...

[caww]

You can change this recipe in so many ways....I even used marmalade jelly and grape jelly together....any jelly works. Even add in some orange juice.

if she is gluten free she can forget bread

I make bagel dough and fill it with little smokies. I make about 100 at a time and they are gone in less than a day.

Pork. Do you have a version of these that will not cause Allah to cast me into hell?

[heavy metal]

how about we throw some german, irish, and lithuanian in that mix... 😁...

if she is gluten free she can forget bread

I don’t know if you have a wife, but in my experience with women, telling them to forget about bread is like telling them to forget about beathing.

My woman loves bread in all of its various forms; dinner rolls, pasta and you name it.

Bread is life.

Unfortunately, in recent years she has developed an allergy to gluten.

If she eats a single slice of bread a bout of bloating and reflux is coming her way.

Crepes are good if you don’t wrap them too tight.
