Here’s a simple and tasty recipe for BBQ Baked Sausages—perfect for a quick meal or party!
Ingredients (Serves 4)
- 8–10 sausages (pork, beef, or chicken)
- 1 cup barbecue sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion, sliced (optional)
- 1 bell pepper, sliced (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Line a baking tray with foil for easy cleanup.
2. Prepare the Sausages
- Place sausages on the tray.
- If using onions and peppers, arrange them around the sausages.
- Brush sausages with a little olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper.
3. Bake
- Bake for 20 minutes, turning sausages halfway through.
- Remove tray from oven and brush sausages generously with barbecue sauce.
4. Finish Baking
- Return sausages to oven and bake for another 10–15 minutes, until sausages are cooked through (internal temp 160–165°F / 71–74°C for pork/beef, 165°F / 74°C for chicken) and the sauce is slightly caramelized.
5. Serve
- Serve hot with extra barbecue sauce, buns, mashed potatoes, or roasted vegetables.
Tips
- For extra flavor: Marinate sausages in barbecue sauce for 30–60 minutes before baking.
- Crispier skin: Broil for 2–3 minutes at the end of baking.
- Add smoky flavor: Sprinkle smoked paprika or a few drops of liquid smoke into the sauce.
💡 Shortcut idea: You can also cook sausages in a foil packet with BBQ sauce to keep them extra juicy and infuse more flavor.
I can give a one-pan BBQ baked sausage with potatoes and veggies recipe too—it’s a complete meal baked together in 35–40 minutes.
