Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sausages

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add the beef and pork sausage links. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally until they are browned and cooked through.

  2. 2

    Mix the Spices

    In a small bowl, combine the smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt. Mix well and set aside.

  3. 3

    Chop the Vegetables

    Dice the onion and bell pepper into small pieces. Set aside for later use.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet after removing the sausages, add the diced onion and bell pepper. Sauté for 5 minutes until they are softened.

  2. 5

    Add the Spices

    Sprinkle the spice mixture over the sautéed vegetables and stir well for about 1 minute to release the flavors.

  3. 6

    Combine Sausages with Vegetables

    Return the cooked sausage links to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables and spices. Pour in the barbecue sauce, mustard, and hot sauce, stirring to combine. Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes until everything is heated through.

Serving

  1. 7

    Toast the hot dog buns lightly if desired. Place a sausage link with the vegetable and sauce mixture inside each bun and serve hot.
