What Is the Best Way to Serve Aldi Cocktail Sausages?
Tailgate food is easy to eat items. Whether it is a handheld slider, grab-and-go sandwich or simple appetizers, no one would ever describe the food as fussy. Cocktail sausages have become a staple because they offer versatility and little preparation.
Many people serve mini wieners, like the Aldi Cocktail Sausages, in a slow cooker or small Crock Pot. The low, even heat keeps the food warm for the duration of the party. After all, cold sausages are never appetizing.
The key to this serving method is to ensure that the food never scorches. Burnt sauce is not only unappetizing; it is difficult to clean. The appetizer is meant to be easy. No one wants to struggle after the game to scrub a pan.
Guests can put sausages on a plate, stuff them in between some Hawaiian rolls or even create a new version of a loaded nacho. The appetizer might be a simple food, but it always satisfies.
