BBQ Shrimp and sausage skewers (semi-OT)

SmokeyPitt

I saw this method for stacking shrimp and sausage and I gave it a try. It is basically shrimp wrapped sausage on a stick. I used Kiolbassa Jalapeño Beef Sausage.  My friend brought me some sauce from Southern Soul in SSI so I painted some on at the end of the cook.  The sauce is excellent and we really enjoyed this combo. 

Ignore the cooking appliance.

That looks really good, I normally wrap the shrimp in bacon, secure with a toothpick and dunk in catalina dressing then pile them all in a basket... will have to try it with sausage instead next time!

That looks really good. I have had bacon-wrapped stuff before, but never shrimp-wrapped. I have a friend who lives on SSI and he says Southern Soul is good.

My friend that brought me the sauce really enjoyed it as well. I also noticed they carry it at my Publix. There is a section at the end of an aisle called "locals corner" or something like that.

Thanks! Your recipe sounds excellent as well. I have done the bacon wrapped and it is really good. The sausage skewers were a little less labor intensive to build so good for lazy cooks like me.

Thanks! I want to try these on the egg sometimes so I get a little smoke. I was cheating with the lil' gasser for a quick weeknight cook. It's also a new toy to play with.

Like this? I believe these are U12. And yes it's on a gasser.

@Moleman I used Jumbo 31-40 count per lb. 

@td66snrf those look amazing. I don't think I can get shrimp that pretty here in GA. I am digging those skewers as well.

@SmokeyPitt I got them at Costco in the frozen section.  4lb bag 50 bucks
