Who doesn’t love a good, old-fashioned hot dog or smoked sausage? They’re tasty, fun, simple to cook, and inexpensive. These stuffed, turkey/chicken sausages tick all those boxes, and they add a touch of elegance at the same time.
I’m always looking for simple ways to add new life to old classics. Splitting the sausage and stuffing them, adds so much more texture and flavor.
These smoked turkey/chicken sausages go beyond the typical pork or beef sausage and with the addition of some bacon, veggies and then topped with cheese puts a new spin on a way to enjoy sausages.
