The star of this recipe is the bite-size, capsule-shaped smoked sausages.
So much so that the product name often includes Lil’l, Lil, or Lit’l.
Apparently the more contractions and apostrophes in the name, the more assured we can rest in their littleness.

Most grocery stores carry bags of these ready-to-eat cocktail weenies near the bacon and hot dogs.
Warehouse stores carry huge, party-worthy bags.

Use meatballs, or cut up links of regular smoked sausage.
Heat them in a slow cooker for a couple of hours.
