    Wikipedia says this approach originated in Germany, called ‘Würstchen im Schlafrock’. Afaik it’s popular in Eastern Europe.

    English-speakers may know it as ‘pigs in a blanket’.

      Some folks call them Kolaches if you live far enough in the South US. Definitely a trend that followed with Eastern European migrations.

      Pigs in blanket in the UK would mean cocktail sausage in bacon or pastry
      It could be both, but I’ve never come across it

        Here in the southern US, pigs in a blanket is typically made from little cocktail smokies wrapped in about 1/3’rd of an uncooked pilsbury cresssant, then tossed in an oven until done. I really thought a sausage roll from Tesco would be similar but it was not… That’s when I realized y’all have pretty bad food there (no offense), why did you guys start putting hotdogs in pizza crust? As an aside, I love how orderly everyone queues up for stuff there, almost like a country with functioning adults that teach their kids how to wait their turn.

        Are ‘cocktail sausages’ made from a variety of meats boiled, cured, or smoked — shaken, but not quite stirred together, so to say?

        Same in the regions of the US I’ve been to. Usually little cocktail weenies in pastry here, bacon wrapped is just called bacon wrapped, though.
