Tips:

Choose the right sausage: For the best flavor, use a fully cooked sausage that is already seasoned. Smoked sausage, bratwurst, and Italian sausage are all good options.
Slice the sausage thinly: This will help it cook evenly and quickly.
Use a large skillet: A large skillet will give the sausage plenty of room to cook without overcrowding.
Cook the sausage over medium heat: This will help prevent it from burning.
Stir the sausage frequently: This will help it cook evenly and prevent it from sticking to the pan.
Add the vegetables: Once the sausage is cooked, add the vegetables and cook them until they are tender.
Add the sauce: Stir in the sauce and bring it to a simmer. Let it simmer for a few minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
Serve: Serve the sausage and vegetables over rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes.

Conclusion:

This barbecue sausage skillet is a quick and easy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover sausage.
