METHOD
Why It Works
Grilling caramelizes the sausage and peppers for smoky, charred flavor. A Cajun butter brush adds a glossy, seasoned finish right off the heat.
Quick Fixes
Veg cooking unevenly: cut everything the same size.
Sticking to the grate: oil the grill and skewers first.

Avo's Tip
Soak wooden skewers for 20 minutes first so they don't scorch on the grill.
