Party Cocktail Wieners

1 or 2 packs little smokies.
1 bottle of barbeque sauce (I use Bulls Eye)
3 TBL of current or grape Jelly (sugar free)

I also add a couple of jiggers of rum. The alcohol burns off, but
gives it a good flavor. Cook in a crock-pot or in a pan on the stove
on simmer.

In addition to using these great suggestions .... I know what else I would like if I was coming ... several kinds of flavored coffees. These are almost like dessert to me. Hazelnut Decal, Vanilla Decaf, Cinnamon Bun Decaf, Black Rain Forrest Decaf etc. Whatever you have available in your area. Use your imagination. And of course, plenty of cream.
