How To Make Air Fryer BBQ Kielbasa Bites

  • Cut the sausage in slices. Air fry them for 6 to 8 minutes at 360 degrees.
  • Stir together remaining ingredients in a medium bowl. Add sausage to the bowl and coat with sauce.
  • Return to air fryer and air fry 3 to 5 minutes more.

The edges of the sausage get so crispy and caramelized.

How To Serve Air Fryer BBQ Kielbasa Bites

I like to eat these Kielbasa Bites as is because they alreay have so much flavor, but you could serve them with BBQ Sauce or Dijon mustard for dipping.

Recipe Tips

  • You can cut your sausage a little thicker if you like. I like to cut the sausage fairly thin.
  • Any type of smoked pre-cooked sausage will work well for this recipe, either pork or beef.
  • Air frying cooking time is an estimate. Different air fryer models and brands cook at different rates.

How To Store

Leftovers will keep for 4 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator and can be reheated in the air fryer or microwave.
