If there is one thing my uncle Gary is known for at Thanksgiving, it's this sausage. Slow-cooked for about three hours after being grilled, this sausage is tender and juicy, with incredible flavor from the seasonings and sauce. It goes faster than any other meat at Thanksgiving. It calls specifically for Grub-Rub seasoning and Masterpiece barbecue sauce, which are essential to getting the sausage right. Make sure you also get sausage links with the skins on, as that is essential for the sausage to cook right.

Ingredients
- 2 lbs smoked beef sausage links with skins (about 10 links)
- freshly ground black pepper
- 20 Tbsp Grub-Rub seasoning (2 Tbsp per link)
- 20 Tbsp Masterpiece barbecue sauce (2 Tbsp per link)
Instructions
- Coat the sausage links in black pepper and the Grub-Rub seasoning.
- Heat a grill to 350°F. Cook the sausage on the grill for about 15 minutes, turning often so that it does not burn.
- Preheat the oven to 200°F. Remove the sausage from the grill and place on a large sheet of heavy duty aluminum foil. Spread the barbecue sauce over the links, and wrap them up in the foil. The number of links wrapped in each sheet of foil will vary depending on the size, so use your best judgement on how many to put.
- Place the foil packets on a large baking sheet and bake for about 3 hours.
- Remove the sausage links from the foil and slice into 1-inch thick pieces. Serve immediately.
