Hello! Welcome to Keeping Up with the Joneses. Thanks for stopping by! We're a young couple living in the East Arkansas/Memphis area otherwise known as The Delta, with a love for family, friends, faith and food.

We believe that some of the best memories are created at home around the dinner table, and when entertaining those you love. This little blog is where I share recipes, wine, our home and our life. Enjoy! -Kendall

What You'll Find:

I love to try new recipes. In fact, I rarely make the same thing twice. I'm a bona-fide cookbook collector, Pinterest addict and magazine aficionado. On the blog, you'll see what I've got cooking.

I love wine, y'all, so from time to time I feature bottles I've loved. Crafts and decorating our little house are passions of mine, so you may see some of that. Thanks for stopping by!

Spicy Chipotle Smokies

I love chipotle peppers! And I love this recipe for smoked sausages....

Ingredients:
  • 1 (28 oz.) bottle of barbeque sauce (we like to do half Jack Daniel's Hickory Smoked combined with some Kraft Honey BBQ, whatever we have on hand, really!)
  • 1 (18 oz.) jar cherry preserves
  • 4-5 canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, chopped up
  • 1 tablespoon adobo sauce from can
  • 2 (16 oz.) packages cocktail-size smoked sausages
  • We pour about a 1/4 of a cup of water into the empty bbq sauce jar and shake it around. That way you get all the extra sauce, instead of adding straight water to the mixture!
Put everything in a crock pot on low for a few hours. 
Or, if you're in a hurry, bring all ingredients (but the smokies) to a boil, then add in the sausages and simmer for 15 minutes.


They're really yummy!
