Notes

These can be done in the stove,  you just won't get that great charcoal flavor imparted by the grill. I would use precooked sausage if using oven as conecuh is not cooked and needs the direct heat to get finished when shrimp is ready.

    Are the times the same in the oven?

      If you use precooked sausage then yes. Conecuh is not precooked and the direct heat on grill helps it cook through.

      It’s a brand. Academy sporting goods and Meijer both have it but I usually order online.

    Made a few mods. Very amazing concept! I’m a Field Service Engineer and live in hotels and made this with my Nuwave Induction Cooktop.
