Marinate the shrimp and sausage: Marinating the shrimp and sausage in a flavorful mixture of herbs, spices, and oil will help to enhance their flavor and keep them moist during cooking.
Skewer the shrimp and sausage alternately: This will create a visually appealing kabob and ensure that the shrimp and sausage cook evenly.
Grill the kabobs over medium heat: This will prevent the shrimp and sausage from overcooking and becoming tough.
Baste the kabobs with the reserved marinade: This will help to keep them moist and flavorful.
Serve the kabobs immediately: Sausage and shrimp kabobs are best served hot off the grill. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce.
