🔥 How to Cook Conecuh Sausage

Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10–15 minutes
Total Time: ~15–20 minutes

🧑‍🍳 Basic Pan-Fry or Grill Method

📝 Ingredients:

1 package Conecuh sausage (usually smoked — precooked but needs heating)
Optional: sliced onions, peppers, or other veggies

🔪 Instructions:

1. Slice or Leave Whole:

Slice into ½-inch rounds or cut links in half for faster, even cooking.

2. Cook in a Skillet:

Heat a nonstick or cast iron skillet over medium heat.
Add sausage (no oil needed — it renders fat).
Cook for 5–8 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned and heated through.

3. Or Grill It:

4. Optional Veggies:

For a full skillet meal, sauté onions and bell peppers with the sausage.

🍽 Serving Ideas

With rice or grits — Southern-style comfort food
On a bun — like a smoky sausage dog with mustard and onions
With eggs and potatoes — for breakfast or brunch
In pasta, gumbo, or jambalaya

💡 Tips

Conecuh is fully cooked, so you’re just crisping and heating.
It’s naturally smoky and seasoned — you don’t need much extra.
Leftovers are great in omelets, fried rice, or stir-fry.
