Grilled sausage is a flavorful protein option made by cooking ground meat—typically pork, beef, chicken, or a mix—encased in a natural or synthetic casing. Seasoned with herbs and spices like fennel, garlic, paprika, or black pepper, sausages vary widely in recipe and origin, with notable varieties from German, Italian, and Spanish cuisines. Grilling enhances the natural smokiness and creates a crisp, caramelized exterior. While sausages are a good source of protein and certain vitamins like B12, they can be high in saturated fat, sodium, and additives, depending on the brand or recipe. Opting for leaner meat versions, low-sodium options, or those without preservatives can make it a more health-conscious choice. Pair with vegetables or whole grains for a balanced meal.
