Cut Kielbasa into 1-inch slices. Tightly wrap each sausage stack with a slice of bacon and secure with a toothpick or pierce with skewers. Season will with BBQ dry rub.
Place the bacon wrapped smoked sausage on the cool side of the grill and cover the grill. Allow the sausage to cook for approximately 45 minutes until the bacon is crisp and browned.
