Ingredients

Skewers

  • 13 ounces smoked turkey sausage
  • 3 bell peppers, chopped into pieces
  • 1 red onion, chopped into pieces
  • Kosher salt and pepper, to taste

Sauce

  • ¼ cup your favorite BBQ sauce
  • 2 tablespoons hot honey

To Serve

  • Chopped fresh cilantro, for serving
  • Rice, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to high heat to ensure a nice sear and even cooking of the skewers.
  2. Cut the smoked turkey sausage into 1-inch pieces to match the size of the chopped peppers and onion for easy threading onto the skewers.
  3. Thread the sausage pieces, bell peppers, and red onion onto skewers in any order you prefer, typically 4 to 5 sausage pieces per skewer layered with vegetables.
  4. In a small bowl, stir together the BBQ sauce and hot honey until well combined.
  5. Brush the hot honey BBQ mixture generously over all sides of the assembled skewers to coat them evenly.
  6. Place the skewers on the hot grill and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, turning every 2 to 3 minutes to grill all sides until the vegetables are tender and sausage is heated through.
  7. Optionally brush additional hot honey BBQ sauce onto the skewers after grilling for extra flavor.
  8. Sprinkle fresh chopped cilantro over the skewers and serve them hot over a bed of cooked rice.

Notes

  • Use metal or soaked wooden skewers to prevent burning on the grill.
  • You can substitute smoked turkey sausage with smoked kielbasa or your favorite smoked sausage.
  • Adjust the amount of hot honey according to desired spice level.
  • For a gluten-free option, ensure the BBQ sauce is gluten-free.
  • Vegetables like zucchini or cherry tomatoes can be added to the skewers for variety.
