I love the minis too but if you use the large sausage, try wrapping bacon around them. and it will hold them better in the dough too. Make the buiscut dough kind of thin too.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Take buscuits and cut them into three pieces in a lengthwise manner, with the middle piece bieng bigger than the sides. Then cut the middles in half width wise.
Flatten out each buscuit piece into a rectangle, and roll up a lil smokie in each one. Make sure you roll them good and tight, or they could unroll in the oven while cooking.
Lightly spray a nonstick baking sheet with a little bit of the nonstick spray.
Place the lil "pigs" onto the sheet in rows about an inch or so apart.
Bake for about 15 minutes, or until golden brown.

Try putting a quarter slice of cheese inside, any kind will do. Make a mustard dip for them, spicy mustard and honey..etc.

You could also put a little crushed pineapple inside for a different taste.

a very good recipe my friend makes for every party (and they are gone FAST!)
wrap smokies or 1/3 hot dog pieces in half a piece of bacon- secure with toothpick
arrange on cookie sheet (lay foil on the cookie sheet-believe me will save you cleanup time!) and top each one with a scoop of brown sugar- you kind of have to make a mound with your fingers cuz it doesn't stick well to the bacon without a little help!
then bake in oven at like 375 till the bacon starts to get crispy

otherwise spread some Dijon mustard on the croissant dough before you roll them up and bake
