BIG OL' MESS (SMOKED SAUSAGE IN SPICY SWEET SAUCE)



Big Ol' Mess (Smoked Sausage in Spicy Sweet Sauce) image

This is a grilling recipe, and one that easily transfers to the campfire when camping. You can make it up ahead of time, put it into a cooler of ice and skip the mess at the campsite. A great dish from Marlboro.

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb smoked sausage, cut into chunks
3 jalapeno peppers, sliced
1 green bell pepper, de-seeded and cut into chunks
1 sweet onion, peeled and cut into chunks
1/4 cup Tabasco sauce
10 ounces sweet and sour sauce

Steps:

  • Make an aluminum foil bag. Use 2 12" x 18" sheets of heavy-duty foil (or double regular foil) and, (after the ingredients are in the bottom half), crimp the top half on.
  • Put the sausage, green pepper and onions in the bottom half of the foil bag.
  • Mix the Tabasco up with the sweet and sour sauce and pour it over the sausage mix. Seal the foil bag with the top half. Make sure it is "leak-proof".
  • Place on the grill (gas or charcoal) and cook for a total of 45 minutes, turning after each 15 minutes.
  • You can slit the bag open when done and serve from it at the campsite.
  • If you are cooking this in the hot coals of a campfire, reduce the total cooking time by about 15 minutes and turn every 5 minutes.

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound(s) smoke sausage or polish keilbassa
3 - jalapeno peppers
1 - green bell pepper
1 - sweet onion
1/4 cup(s) tobasco sauce
10 ounce(s) bottled sweet & sour sauce
- heavy foil

Steps:

  • Slice jalapenos and chunk sausage and other vegies into bite sized pieces.
  • Divide ingredients evenly into foil packets
  • Combine tobasco and sweet & sour sauces. Then add to foil packets with sausage and vegies.
  • Seal tightly. Place on grill. Cook 45 min. turning every 15 min. Be very careful when opening the foil packets..they will be steam filled.

Tips:

  • Choose the right foil. Heavy-duty aluminum foil is best for creating foil packets, as it is less likely to tear or leak.
  • Prep your ingredients. Cut your vegetables into uniform pieces so that they cook evenly. Season your meat and vegetables with salt, pepper, and your favorite seasonings.
  • Create a durable packet. Fold the foil up around the ingredients, making sure to seal the edges tightly. You can use a double layer of foil for extra protection against leaks.
  • Cook over medium heat. Foil packets can be cooked over a campfire, on a grill, or in the oven. Cook the packets for the amount of time specified in the recipe, or until the food is cooked through.
  • Let the packets rest. Once the packets are cooked, let them rest for a few minutes before opening. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the food.

    Conclusion:

    Cooking with foil packets is a simple and convenient way to prepare delicious meals. With a little planning, you can create a variety of dishes that are perfect for camping, grilling, or everyday cooking. So next time you're looking for an easy and flavorful meal, give foil packet cooking a try.
