In a medium mixing bowl, whisk dry ingredients together.
In a small bowl, mix egg, buttermilk and oil together then add to dry ingredients. Stir until just moistened.
Prior to dipping smoked sausages into the batter, make sure to dry each one off with a paper towel.
Next, dip each sausage into the batter, covering it completely and then carefully adding it immediately to the heated oil with a spoon.
Cook until golden brown on all sides, about 4-5 minutes, and then carefully remove and place on a plate lined with paper towels.
Enjoy!
I don't use sticks with this recipe, but if you want these "on a stick" just add the sticks prior to placing in the oil.
