Ingredients
- 28 ounces (2 14-ounce packages) skinless smoked sausage, sliced into 1 inch pieces (Eckrich brand recommended)
- 1 1/2 cups BBQ sauce (Sweet Baby Ray's recommended)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F and spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Coat the Sausage: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the sliced smoked sausage pieces and BBQ sauce. Stir until all the sausage pieces are fully coated with the sauce.
- Arrange in Baking Dish: Spread the coated sausage pieces evenly in the prepared baking dish in a single layer.
- Bake the Sausage Bites: Place the dish in the oven and bake uncovered for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes. This allows the BBQ sauce to reduce and become bubbly, coating the sausage bites beautifully.
Notes
- Stirring every 15 minutes is important to ensure even cooking and prevent burning.
- Feel free to use your preferred brand of smoked sausage and BBQ sauce.
- These bites are best served warm and can be kept warm in a slow cooker for parties.
- For a spicier version, try adding a dash of hot sauce or cayenne pepper to the BBQ sauce before baking.
