cooking directions

gas or charcoal grill

Preheat gas grill to medium–low heat. (If charcoal, allow it to burn until white ash has formed on the coals.) Place links on grill about 7-9 inches above the heat source. Cook for 7-10 minutes, turning the links frequently, if possible use tongs rather than a fork to prevent casings from puncture.

pan heating

Place links in a pan, add ½ inch of water and cover. Simmer on low heat for about 10 minutes, turning often.

microwave

Remove links from package, place in microwave-safe dish.  Add water to cover links.  Cover dish, heat on high for 1 minute 45 seconds.  Turn links, heat again 1 minute 45 seconds.  Let stand for 1-2 minutes prior to serving.
