Are these called mini-wieners, cocktails sausages, mini-franks or lil' smokies?

Oh, the age-old question of what to call a mini-wiener! It seems like every time you turn around; there's a new name for these tiny, tasty treats.

Cocktail wieners, mini-franks, Lil smokies, Vienna sausages, party wieners... the list goes on and on. It's like a never-ending sausage party.

We like to call them "fun-sized franks" because they're so darn adorable and perfect for a party.

But really, you can call them whatever you want, as long as you don't call them late for dinner!
