  • 1 cup barbecue sauce your favorite style
  • 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Instructions
 

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°F and spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
  • 2. Slice smoked sausage into 1-inch coin shapes.
  • 3. Add sausage, BBQ sauce, brown sugar, and mustard to the dish.
  • 4. Stir to combine until sausage is evenly coated.

Notes

Use any variety of smoked sausage—beef, turkey, or cheddar-flavored.
Spicy BBQ sauce or a dash of cayenne can kick up the heat.
To keep warm for parties, place in a slow cooker on WARM for up to 3 hours post-baking.
