Aunt denise sets these down and suddenly everyone is “just grabbing one more” until they’re gone.

Serve these Southern honey mustard lil smokies straight from the disposable aluminum pan or portioned into paper takeout boxes with toothpicks or small cocktail forks on the side. They’re perfect with other easy appetizers like cheese and crackers, veggie trays, or a slow cooker of queso. For something more substantial, pair them with soft dinner rolls or slider buns so people can make mini sandwiches, plus a simple coleslaw or potato salad. They also travel really well, so you can pop the pan on a salt-and-pepper granite counter at a friend’s house and let everyone help themselves while you set out drinks.
