Sheep In Blankets (Sausage and Bacon)

Don’t just reserve sheep in blankets for Xmas, although they are traditional, there’s no reason why you can do them at any time of year. Having said that, here are mine with the Christmas turkey, so how much of a sheep am I?

They’re very simple to do, really tasty and because of the bacon wrapping you don’t need to have a really expensive sausage.

Where I come from we call these little cocktail sausages “chipolatas” but that can mean other things in other countries so just keep to a low cost short sausage.

Ingredients:-

• 16 chipolata sausages
• 8 rashers of streaky bacon

Method:-

Cut the streaky rashers in half and wrap them around the sausages. You can place them on the grill to cook in 30 minutes turning at half time or stick them in the smoker with some other things and you’ll have the perfect sheep in a blanket after a couple of hours.
