Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Lightly brush 6 turkey sausage links (about 1 lb) with 1 tbsp olive oil to prevent sticking.
  2. Step 2: Grill the sausages for 12-15 minutes, turning every 3-4 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the outside is nicely charred.
  3. Step 3: While the sausages cook, prepare the mustard slaw by combining 1/4 cup yellow mustard, 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar, 1 tbsp honey, and 1/2 cup mayonnaise in a large bowl. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  4. Step 4: Add 3 cups shredded green cabbage, 1 cup shredded red cabbage, 1 cup shredded carrot, 1/2 tsp celery seed, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper to the dressing. Toss well to fully coat the vegetables.
  5. Step 5: Let the slaw chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to develop flavors.
  6. Step 6: Serve the grilled turkey sausages hot alongside a generous scoop of the Hill Country mustard slaw.
