We took this quick and easy slow-cooker classic and gave it a little update--apple jelly stands in for the grape jelly and pairs perfectly with the maple syrup and tart cider vinegar. A splash of bourbon adds a grown-up note to this party favorite. You can use either the pork or beef variety of smoked cocktail sausages.
Add the ketchup, apple jelly, bourbon, maple syrup, cider vinegar, smoked paprika and chipotle and adobo sauce to a 6-quart slow cooker and whisk to make a smooth sauce. Add the sausages and toss to coat in the sauce.
Cover with the lid and cook on high for 3 hours, then uncover and continue to cook on high until the sauce is bubbling and has thickened slightly, about 30 minutes. Set the slow cooker to warm for serving.
