Ingredients
- 14 ounces smoked sausage
- ½ cup BBQ sauce
- ½ medium sweet onion
- 1 medium red bell pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the broiler: Set your oven’s broiler to high heat to prepare for quick cooking that will create a nice char on the sausage and vegetables.
- Prepare the ingredients: Slice the smoked sausage into 1-inch bite-sized pieces. Chop the half medium sweet onion and medium red bell pepper into similarly sized 1-inch chunks to ensure even cooking.
- First broil: Arrange the sausage, peppers, and onions evenly on a foil-lined baking pan. Place the pan on the top oven rack and broil for about 9 minutes or until the sausage pieces begin to develop slight burnt edges and a smoky char.
- Toss with BBQ sauce: Carefully remove the pan from the oven. Transfer the sausage, onions, and peppers into a large bowl and thoroughly toss them with ½ cup of BBQ sauce, making sure all pieces are well-coated.
- Broil again: Pour the BBQ-coated mixture back onto the foil-lined baking pan, spreading it out evenly. Return the pan to the broiler and cook for an additional 4 minutes, or until the BBQ sauce starts bubbling and caramelizing without burning.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and serve immediately while hot to enjoy the full depth of smoky, sweet, and tangy flavors.
Notes
- Use a spicy or smoky BBQ sauce for added flavor variations.
- Adjust broiling times based on your oven’s strength to avoid over-burning.
- Foil lining makes for easy clean-up and even cooking.
- Serve with rice, buns, or as a topping for salads or nachos for a versatile meal.
