Cranberry BBQ Sauce Recipe

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the fresh cranberries, water, and apple cider vinegar. Let the cranberries cook for 3-4 minutes.

Then add in the ketchup, maple syrup, bourbon, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and spices. Mix together with a spatula to combine.

Reduce the heat to medium-low and allow the cranberries to cook and gently burst for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Use a potato masher or immersion blender (if you want a smooth sauce) and burst any remaining cranberries.

Remove the pot from the heat and let the sauce rest and cool slightly before using as a glaze or sauce as desired.

Cranberry BBQ Sauce Sausage Burnt Ends

Preheat the smoker to 250 F. and set for indirect heat.

Take each sausage link and make vertical cuts about 1/2 inch apart along the length, being careful not to cut all the way through. Flip the sausage over, then cut diagonally every 1/2 inch along the link to create a spring-like effect. This unique design allows more smoky flavor to penetrate and caramelizes beautifully during cooking.

Lightly coat the smoked sausage pieces in a mustard binder then season lightly all over.

Place the smoked sausage pieces onto a wire rack. I recommend pulling them apart slightly so they open up and smoke nicely on the grill.

Place the wire rack right onto the grill grates and smoke for about 45-60 minutes or until the sausages take on smoke and caramelize slightly.

Add the cooked sausages into a foil pan and cover with the cranberry BBQ sauce. Then top with a drizzle of honey and 6 slices of butter. Cover the foil pan with foil and place it back onto the smoker for 30 minutes, stirring after 15 minutes.

Once the sausage burnt ends are fully glazed and coated and heated through, remove them from the grill. Serve as an appetizer or game day snack and enjoy!
