Sweet Saucy Smokies

1 (20 ounce) can pineapple chunks, drained with juice reserved

⅓ cup reserved pineapple juice

1 (8 ounce) jar grape jelly

1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste

½ cup packed brown sugar

½ cup vinegar

2 tablespoons cornstarch

2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce

1 teaspoon liquid smoke flavoring

½ teaspoon salt

2 (14 ounce) packages little smoked sausages

Place the pineapple chunks, pineapple juice, grape jelly, tomato paste, brown sugar, vinegar, cornstarch, Worcestershire sauce, hot pepper sauce, liquid smoke flavoring, and salt into a saucepan over medium heat. Stirring constantly, bring the sauce to a simmer, and cook until the grape jelly melts, about 5 minutes.

Stir in the smoked sausages, and turn the heat to low; cook the sausages in the sauce below a simmer until the sauce is thickened and the flavors have blended, about 30 minutes.
