Beer Braised & Grilled or Smoked Sausage?? Which is best?

beer

🥗Healthier: non-alcoholic beer

💰Cheaper: chicken broth

Non-alcoholic beer provides similar flavor without alcohol.

sausages

🥗Healthier: chicken sausage

💰Cheaper: pork sausage

Chicken sausage is lower in fat, while pork sausage is often less expensive.

brown sugar

🥗Healthier: honey

💰Cheaper: white sugar

Honey adds sweetness naturally, while white sugar is often more affordable.

beef broth

🥗Healthier: vegetable broth

💰Cheaper: water with seasoning

Vegetable broth is lighter, and seasoned water can be a budget-friendly alternative.

Cut up bell peppers into slices and place them in a bowl.

Slice two sweet onions and add them to the bowl with the bell peppers.

Place the sausages on top of the vegetables in the bowl.

Pour in the German beer over the sausages and vegetables.

Preheat the Kamado Joe Big Joe grill to 200° C.

Lower the grill grate to increase heat on the bowl with the sausages and beer.

Let the sausages cook in the beer on the grill.

Prepare a sauce by mixing a big dose of mustard, 2 tablespoons of homemade sweet chili sauce, 1 tablespoon of ketchup Manis, 2 teaspoons of Mr Lee pery sauce, and at least 5 tablespoons of honey in a bowl.

Stir the sauce ingredients together until well combined.

Check the sausages; they should turn from pink to white when fully cooked.

Remove the sausages from the beer and let the beer reduce until the onions and bell peppers caramelize and release flavor.

Take the sausages off the grill once they are cooked and have a nice sear on the outside.

Serve the sausages on a bun with the caramelized onions and bell peppers on top, followed by the sauce.
