These easy BBQ Sausage Bites are made with just 2 main ingredients and a couple of simple spices for a crowd-pleasing appetizer everyone loves. Perfect for game day, holiday parties, potlucks, or any gathering!
Slice sausage into ¼- to ½-inch rounds, cutting at a slight angle to create more surface area for browning and holding the BBQ sauce. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat it with olive oil spray. Add the sausage slices in a single layer and let them cook undisturbed for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until lightly charred on one side. Flip the sausage, then stir in 1 cup of BBQ sauce along with the seasonings. Continue cooking until everything is heated through and the sausage is evenly coated. Adding up to a cup more of sauce if needed. Serve the BBQ Sausage Bites directly from the skillet to keep warm or for parties/potlucks, transfer the sausage to a small slow cooker and keep it on the Warm setting until ready to serve.
