Follow The Directions

01

Step

Finely chop approximately 8 of the Lit'l Smokies sausages. Set the remaining sausages aside. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step

In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chopped sausage and minced garlic and sauté until the sausage is lightly browned and the garlic is fragrant. (Cook time: 5-7 minutes)

03

Step

Pour in the white wine and milk. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally. (Cook time: 3-5 minutes)

04

Step

In a separate bowl, toss the diced Brie and shredded Cheddar cheese with the all-purpose flour, ensuring the cheese is thoroughly coated. This will prevent clumping and ensure a smooth fondue.

05

Step

Gradually whisk the cheese mixture into the simmering liquid in the saucepan. Continue whisking constantly until the cheese is fully melted and the fondue is smooth and thick. This should take approximately 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat.

06

Step

Season the fondue with a dash of salt, pepper, and freshly grated nutmeg to taste. (Adjust seasoning to preference).

07

Step

In a separate skillet, sauté the remaining Lit'l Smokies sausages until they are nicely browned and heated through. (Cook time: 5-7 minutes)

08

Step

Serve the warm fondue immediately with the sautéed Lit'l Smokies sausages, fresh apple slices, and toasted baguette slices. Drizzle the fondue and apple slices with a touch of honey for added sweetness and complexity.

For an even richer flavor, consider using a high-quality, artisanal Brie.
If the fondue becomes too thick, add a splash more milk to thin it out to your desired consistency.
Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese! Gruyere, Fontina, or even a smoked Gouda would be delicious additions.
For a festive touch, garnish the fondue with a sprinkle of chopped fresh herbs, such as thyme or parsley.
To keep the fondue warm during serving, transfer it to a fondue pot or slow cooker set on low heat.
Consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little heat.
