Ok this is just a huge fave at my house and all the get-togethers i attend! It is always requested and a GREAT potluck because it feeds A LOT!. I was cooking to cater my mom and dad's 50th wedding anniversary when me and my son came up with this, I was trying to figure out how to make a bbq that I thought my dad would love and this hit that nail on the head. He started calling it 5BQ because of the 5 ingredients that are used with the sauce. The star of this show is truly the Pineapple!

How To Make 5bq barbecue sausages

  • 1
    Roll breakfast sausage into bite size balls place in crockpot
  • 2
    heat in small kettle the beer and pour over the breakfast sausage (this keeps the sausages from cooking together I just heat mine in the microwave in a microwave safe dish.
  • 3
    cut Italian sausage into bite size slices and place on top of breakfast sausage. (I put the raw sausage first because the crock-pots cook from the bottom up and this makes sure it is done through :)
  • 4
    add package of cocktail wieners
  • 5
    add sliced polish sausage
  • 6
    add 2 cans drained pineapple chunks
  • 7
    cover with bbq sauce of your choice
  • 8
    Cook on high for 2 hour stir from bottom up and reduce to med for 1 - 2 hours more. If you want to make and walk away just cook on med heat for 4 -5 hours.

    I make this for dinner often in my home and serve it with fries or mashed potatoes and a veggie side and always serve homemade ciabatta bread with it so we can have sandwiches out of the leftovers :) I will post the ciabatta recipe as well
