Smoked Sausage Like The Fair

Smoked Sausage Like Fair Food

Don't let the picture fool you.  This is a great recipe.  It was based on the Pat And Gina Neely Smoked Sausage and Peppers Recipe but I changed it enough that this recipe is now my own.  I came up with it on a Sunday night when I was trying to make a simple meal for friends.  It was an unexpected hit.








2 tablespoons olive oil

12 smoked sausages such as Johnsonville smoked beef brats or Johnsonville Buffalo style smoked sausage depending on the heat  you like.

1 tablespoon minced garlic

2 sweet onions, sliced up

3 green, red or yellow peppers, sliced up

1 cup Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ Sauce

1 small 6 oz. can tomato paste

1 bottle hard apple cider, preferably Woodchuck.

Hot dog buns

1. Heat the olive oil in a large iron skillet.

2. Brown the sausages on all sides.

3. Remove the sausages from the pan.

4. Add in the garlic, onions, and peppers.  Cook until tender.

5. Add in the tomato paste, BBQ sauce, and cider.  Mix with the garlic peppers and onions.

6. Add back the sausages and place in mixture.

7.  Cook until heated well through.
