Notes
- Short on time? Slice the kielbasa into ½-inch rounds, toss with the sauce, and cook as a spread-out layer in the air fryer.
- Strict carnivore? Skip the BBQ and mustard. Just use bacon mayo and air fry!
- Hosting a party? Serve these on a mini sheet tray lined with brown parchment for a rustic look.
- Want extra smokiness? Try making them on a cast-iron griddle on the grill.
