Smoked Sausage in BBQ Sauce

Sausage is a great appetizer, sliced in rounds and served with horseradish, cheese or crackers. Many nations and regions have their own characteristic sausages, using meats and other ingredients native to the region and employed in traditional dishes. For this recipe I suggest a good smoked sausage and if you want to knock down the heat use canned chilies instead of jalapenos. Serve in a chaffing dish with toothpicks.
