Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 lbs smoked sausage or kielbasa, sliced into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned, drained)
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar

Method
 

Cooking
  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add the sliced sausage and let it brown, stirring occasionally.
  3. Once browned, toss in the pineapple chunks and brown sugar.
  4. Stir the mixture together until the sugar completely dissolves and becomes glossy and sticky, which should take about five minutes.
  5. Remove from heat and serve warm.

Notes

For a healthier twist, consider using turkey sausage or a plant-based alternative. You can also swap the pineapple with peaches for a different flavor profile. For extra flavor, add chili flakes or diced jalapeƱos.
