Ingredients
- Smoked sausage - use your favorite brand of smoked sausage. It's going to get cut into 1-inch pieces
- BBQ sauce - use your favorite BBQ sauce. We're adding brown sugar so you may want to avoid a super sweet sauce.
- Brown sugar - this caramelizes while in the oven and causes the sauce to become sticky and really coat the sausage bites.
- Dijon mustard - this balances the sweetness of the BBQ sauce and brown sugar.
- Crushed red pepper flakes - this adds spice to the sausage bites. Add more or less depending on how much spice you like. If you're using a spicy BBQ sauce, you may want to skip the red pepper flakes.
