Make It

Tap or click steps to mark as complete

Start the grill. These cook best on a medium high temp grill. Make a marinade using the Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, cayenne, oil and water. Pour half over the shrimp, cover, and marinade for about 15 minutes.
Slice the sausage (and if you haven't chopped the veggies already, do that now.) Using bamboo skewers, load them up in the following order: shrimp, sausage (skewer through the skin, so it sits flat), bell pepper (if using), mushroom, bell pepper, sausage, and shrimp. (The real key is making sure the shrimp are on both ends, as they are the anchors on the skewers.) Brush on remaining marinade and season with extra Cajun seasoning if desired.
Cook until shrimp are done, and sausage is heated through (about 15 minutes).

Notes

Serve this with jambalaya, or use it as an appetizer before the steaks come off the grill during a big summer event. Can also be served as an appetizer.
