Prepare the Sausage

1. Slice the Sausage: Cut the smoked sausage into bite-sized pieces—about 1-inch thick slices. You can slice them into rounds or diagonally for a fancier look!
2. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Cook the Sausage

1. Fry the Sausage: Add the sausage slices to the hot skillet and cook, turning occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes or until they’re golden brown and slightly crispy on the edges.
2. Remove and Set Aside: Once cooked, remove the sausage bites from the skillet and set them aside on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Make the BBQ Sauce

1. Mix the Sauce: In a small bowl, combine your barbecue sauce, honey, and apple cider vinegar (if using). Stir until well mixed and smooth.

Coat the Sausage in Sauce

1. Toss in BBQ Sauce: Place the cooked sausage bites in a large bowl. Pour the BBQ sauce mixture over the sausage and toss to coat evenly.

Serve

1. Serve and Enjoy: Serve your BBQ Sausage Bites warm, either on a platter or skewered with toothpicks for easy picking. You can also serve them with a side of extra barbecue sauce for dipping if you like.
