BACON-WRAPPED PRUNES
Also known as Devils on Horseback, these sinful bacon-wrapped bites are perfect for a Halloween party hors d'oeuvre. With just two ingredients and about five minutes of prep work, they couldn't be easier to prepare either. They're best served warm, so pop them in the oven right before your guests arrive.

GRILLED SAUSAGES WITH PRUNES AND BACON
My husband's grandmother gave me this recipe. The combo of sweet prunes, salty bacon and meaty sausages is delicious. This recipe is great with any fresh, large sausage (just not the wee breakfast-style sausages). Sometimes I use sweet Italian, sometimes spiced Italian, sometimes bratwurst, sometimes knockwurst, and sometimes just local pork sausage. Serve in buns with all the usual fixin's (sauerkraut, mustard, relish, etc.).

Steps:
- Prick the casing of each sausage in a few places to prevent them from bursting. Place the sausages in a pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium; simmer 8 minutes. Remove from pot and let cool.
- Place toothpicks in a small bowl of water and soak 10 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
- Slice sausages halfway through on the long side. Stuff 3 prunes into the opening. Wrap a bacon slice around the sausage in a spiral and secure with two toothpicks. Repeat with all 6 sausages.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
- Place sausages onto preheated grill and cook, turning once, until desired doneness, or until bacon is browned. Serve on buns topped with desired condiments.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Run a skewer lengthwise through the center of one of the pork halves. Remove the skewer and insert a fork handle into one end of the pork, in the hole created by the skewer. Twist the fork around to enlarge the hole enough to insert the prunes. Repeat at the other end. Push half of the prunes into the hole until a line of prunes runs the length of the pork. Repeat with other pork half.
- Rub the mustard all over the pork and season generously with pepper. Wrap the bacon around the pork and place in a large roasting pan. Roast until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees, about 1 1/2 hours. Let stand for 10 minutes before carving. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips for Perfect Prunes Wrapped in Bacon:
- Choose large, plump prunes for a more satisfying bite. - Soak the prunes in hot water for 10-15 minutes before wrapping them in bacon. This will help to plump them up and make them more tender. - Use thin-sliced bacon for easier wrapping and more even cooking. - Wrap the prunes tightly in bacon, making sure that there are no gaps. This will help to prevent the prunes from drying out. - Secure the bacon-wrapped prunes with a toothpick to prevent them from unraveling during cooking. - Bake the prunes in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the prunes are tender. - Serve the prunes wrapped in bacon immediately, while they are still hot and crispy.Conclusion:
