Ingredients
- 800 grams skinless smoked sausage, sliced into 2.5 cm pieces
- 360 millilitres barbecue sauce
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Lightly grease a 23×33 cm baking dish with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Mix Sausage with Sauce: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the sliced sausage with the barbecue sauce. Stir well until every sausage piece is fully coated in the sauce, ensuring an even flavor throughout.
- Arrange in Dish: Spread the coated sausage slices evenly in a single layer in the prepared baking dish. Laying them out evenly promotes even cooking and saucing.
- Bake and Stir: Bake the sausage bites uncovered for 45 minutes. Every 15 minutes, remove the dish and stir the sausage pieces to redistribute the sauce, helping it thicken and bubble beautifully across all pieces. Once done, the sauce will be thick and bubbly, coating the sausage bites deliciously.
Notes
- You can use your favorite brand of barbecue sauce for different flavor profiles, ranging from sweet to spicy.
- Serve these bites as an appetizer, party snack, or pair them with sides for a casual meal.
- If desired, garnish with freshly chopped parsley or green onions before serving for a fresh touch.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven or microwave.
