COOKING SMOKED SAUSAGE couldn’t be easier. Check out this Story for more info!
Here’s What You’ll Need for Oven Baked Smoked Sausage
- Sheet Pan – one with a rim works best.
- Some Aluminum Foil – I like the “heavy” best because it’s less likely to get holes.
- SMOKED SAUSAGE – or any other sausages in a casing.
- An Oven – and really, thats all!
Here’s How You Do It
- Place the foil on the baking sheet – secure it by crimping it around the edges unless you are feeling daring.
- Preheat the oven to 350.
- Space your SMOKED SAUSAGE out so that heat can circulate around them.
- Place in the center of the oven and bake for 25-35 minutes until they reach an internal temperature of 160.

Don’t let someone tell you all that ugliness, you don’t need that kind of hatefulness in your life.
