When dinner needs to be quick—but still feel like an occasion—sausage and vegetable kebabs are a solid go-to. They’re customizable, cook in minutes, and make it easy to pack a variety of flavors onto a single skewer. Even better? Minimal cleanup.
For summer hosts, veggie kebabs are also a visual win. A platter of skewered sausage, red peppers, zucchini, and red onions adds instant color and rustic charm to your spread. And if you’re working with picky eaters? Let everyone build their own. That way, everyone gets what they want—and you get dinner on the table without a fuss.
This is a recipe you can feel confident throwing together even on a hectic evening. All you need for these sausage and veggie kebabs is:
Start by slicing your kielbasa into thick coins—about ¾ inch wide. Chop your veggies into similarly sized chunks, keeping in mind that they should be sturdy enough to hold on a skewer without falling apart.
Thread alternating slices of sausage and vegetables onto metal or soaked wooden skewers. Drizzle lightly with olive oil and season generously.
Grill over medium heat, rotating every few minutes, until the sausage is browned and the vegetables have softened and developed grill marks—usually about 10–12 minutes total. Serve hot with your sauce of choice or over a bed of rice or salad greens.
A good skewer doesn’t need sauce—but it never hurts to have a few drizzles and dips on hand. Here are three quick options to level up your sausage and vegetable kebabs:
Whisk together ¼ cup soy sauce, 1 tbsp honey, 1 tsp grated fresh ginger, and a dash of sesame oil. Brush over kebabs during the last minute of grilling for an umami-packed finish.
Combine ¼ cup sour cream, 1 tbsp mayo, chopped fresh dill, and a splash of lemon juice. Thin with a bit of milk or water until pourable. Great for dipping or spooning on top.
Mix 2 tbsp ketchup, 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar, 1 tsp brown sugar, and a pinch of smoked paprika. Warm gently for a fast, tangy BBQ-style sauce.
Each of these complements the smoky sausage and charred vegetables beautifully without overpowering them.
The real game-changer here is the Coleman Uncured Polish Kielbasa. Fully cooked and packed with flavor, it’s ready to slice and grill straight from the package—no fuss, no mystery ingredients.
