Uncle Gary’s Slow-Cooked Sausage
5 from 1 vote
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.

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.

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.
