Notes

For an extra burst of flavor, brush the skewers with a little honey during the last few minutes of grilling. This creates a sticky glaze that pairs perfectly with the savory sausage.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven to retain texture. You can also freeze them individually wrapped for up to 2 months.
Experiment with different sausages like chicken or beef, and feel free to add other veggies or fruits for personalized flavor. Enjoy this versatile dish at game nights, picnics, or as appetizers for gatherings.
