Cut the bacon into thirds.

Wrap each little smokie with a piece of bacon and secure it with a toothpick, placing them in a large glass bowl.

Drizzle the wrapped smokies with 1/4 cup of buffalo sauce.

In a separate bowl, combine 1/2 cup of brown sugar with 2 tablespoons of sweet herb seasoning.

Roll each toothpicked little smokie in the brown sugar mixture until coated on all sides.

Place the coated smokies on a wire rack over a baking sheet to catch drips.

Preheat the smoker to 275°F.

Transfer the wire rack with the smokies to the smoker and cook for 45 minutes, checking for doneness at that time.

If the bacon is not rendered to your liking after 45 minutes, continue cooking for up to 1 hour.
