Hi, OH has asked for Pigs in Blankets tomorrow. I got the chipolatas and bacon, but am not sure if I should roast them or grill them?
Which is better, and how long do I cook them for please?

MERRY CHRISTMAS !!! :xmastree:

    I just put them on a baking tray in the oven for about 30 minutes, wherever you get the space tomorrow!

    We havn't got those this year, but I did do cocktail sauages this afternoon (for tea tomorrow) and did those in the oven. 30 minutes should do, if you;ve already had turkey in there for most of the morning, it'll be nice and hot, and whilst the turkey is resting, you'll have plenty of space.

    I put them in to cook, as i take the meat out of the oven to rest. They take about 20 - 30 minutes!!!!

    I pop them in around the turkey when I've drained off the juices and I'm doing the browning bit at the end. They stay warm in tin foil while the turkey rests and I'm finishing off the roast potatoes.

    Thank you all so much! They will go into the oven when the gammon comes out and rests (no turkey this year - honey roast gammon instead)

    Can't wait... :drool:

    for me i have to use chipolatas ideally plain pork , but cumberland also works well. then i wrap in back back unsmoked , and put in oven with foil over tray for about 45 mins. i don't like the bacon to go too crispy.
