The Ultimate BBQ Sausage

Servings 4
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes

Equipment

  • BBQ
  • Coals

Ingredients

  • 4 Premium Pork Sausages (or high-quality hot dogs)
  • 4 Hot Dog Buns
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil for brushing
  • 2 tbsp Burger Seasoning by Goodness In A Bowl (see Notes below to shop)

Instructions

  • Prep the BBQ (Two-Zone Cooking): Set up your BBQ for two-zone cooking. Create a direct heat zone (hot coals) and an indirect heat zone (no coals underneath). Aim for a medium ambient temperature of around 180°C.
  • Season the Sausages: Lightly brush your sausages or hot dogs with a touch of olive oil. Dust them evenly with either our Burger Seasoning (for that bold grill-house flavour) or our Pork Rub (for a herbaceous, savoury depth). Let them sit for 5 minutes while the grill stabilises.
  • The Gentle Start (Indirect Heat): Place the sausages on the indirect heat zone first. Close the BBQ lid and let them cook gently for about 10–12 minutes. This ensures the inside cooks through perfectly without splitting the skins.
  • The Perfect Sear (Direct Heat): Move the sausages over to the direct heat zone for the final 2–3 minutes. Roll them frequently until they develop a beautiful golden-brown crust and that signature BBQ snap.
  • Toast the Buns: Slice your buns and place them face-down on the direct heat for just 30 seconds until lightly toasted. Assemble immediately with your favourite condiments.
