Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, about 400°F (200°C).

  2. Step 2

    In a small bowl, mix the 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper to make a rub.

  3. Step 3

    Brush the rub evenly over the 4 sausage links, coating all sides.

  4. Step 4

    Place the sausages on the grill and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until the casings are browned and slightly charred and the sausages are heated through (internal temperature reaches 160°F/71°C).

  5. Step 5

    Remove from the grill and let rest for 2-3 minutes before serving. Serve whole or sliced.
