Whiskey BBQ Sausages - Bock

Whiskey BBQ Sausages
Servings – depends on size of sausage

Pecan Smoked Jalapeno sausage (can substitute other sausages, but would use something spicy.  This is not one of my healthy recipes, but definitely would be if you used chicken sausage instead)
¼ cup of whiskey
1/2 cup ketchup
2 T brown sugar
1 T apple cider vinegar
1 T Worcestershire
.5 T lemon juice
1.5 T Dijon
1 t Louisiana hot sauce
1 t onion powder
1 t garlic powder
Dash salt and pepper

As I said before this wasn’t the healthiest with the pork sausage, but if you use chicken sausage you could definitely have one to two of these for a point.  I made these for a 4th of July party and they were a hit.  I usually don’t even like sausages and I had several.  The mix of spicy and sweet was perfect.

Because these are a little spicy, I would use a strong beer to stand up to them.  Since was the 4th of July I chose one of the most American Beers I know, while at least in Texas and that’s a Shiner Bock.  Shiner of course is made in the small town of Shiner, Texas.  Shiner Bock is their main beer.  When you visit Texas you must drink shiner.  Every time my Dad comes to visit he looks forward to having it.  It’s a dark beer that can stand up to the strong flavors of these sausages.  It smooth and malty.
