Bust out the smoker to add some outdoor flavor to our Kurobuta sausage links. The smoked links are served with a spicy and sweet tomato and red pepper jam. Bomba, made from medium-hot Calabrian chili peppers, adds a smoky, fruity note to the jam. This is a great dish to serve as an appetizer or game day snack.

      1. Preheat the oven or grill to 425°F.

      2. In a small ceramic or glass baking dish, add the tomatoes, shallot, garlic, olive oil, peppers, herbs, Bomba sauce, honey, and season with salt, and pepper, to taste. Stir to combine.

      3. Place in the oven or grill and cook until the tomatoes have burst, the top has started to caramelize, and the juices have reduced and are jammy, 45 to 55 minutes.

      4. Remove the baking dish and let cool for 10 minutes. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar, stir, and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve warm or at room temperature. Tomato and Red Pepper Jam can be refrigerated for up to a week. Enjoy!
