Grilled Sausage and Cheese Plate - ground cumin

Method

• Turn on your grill and let it reach medium heat.
• In a small bowl, add spices and stir well to combine.
• Open packages of kielbasa (I use Hillshire Farms Polska, but the turkey kielbasa is good as well) and drain excess liquid.
• Place kielbasa on a cookie sheet and cut the links in half.
• Then cut those in half.
• You should have 8 hot-dog sized pieces of kielbasa now.
• Take each piece and cut about 3/4 of the way through, every quarter of an inch or so.
• Get a spoon and sprinkle the rub between each slice and the exposed ends.
• You will most likely have some rub leftover.
• Place spice-rubbed kielbasa links on the grill and cover the grill.
• Cook for about 8 minutes and flip, cooking another 5-7 until hot and skin is darkened.
• While the kielbasa is cooking, get out a large platter and begin cubing the cheese.
• Pick grapes off and add them to the platter.
• When the sausage is done, cut into pieces and add it to the platter.
• Add some toothpicks to each group.
• This sausage has a good spice level to it, so if people arent keen on spice, tell them to get sausage, cheese and a grape on a toothpick and take it as one bitethe creaminess of the cheese and the coolness of the grape balance the heat perfectly!
• (I do this anyway just because its delicious.)
• Serve with a cold beer and enjoy your game, tailgate, cookout, etc.
