Start by soaking the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
Cut the smoked sausage into 1-inch pieces and set aside.
Dice the red and yellow bell peppers into 1-inch squares. Slice the zucchini into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Cut the red onion into wedges, separating the layers slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, prepare the marinade by whisking together olive oil, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, dried rosemary, and black pepper.
Add the sausage pieces and vegetables (except cherry tomatoes) to the bowl with the marinade. Toss everything until well coated, cover with plastic wrap, and let marinate in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Assemble the kabobs by threading the marinated sausage pieces and vegetables onto the soaked skewers, alternating them for a colorful presentation. Add cherry tomatoes to each skewer for a burst of flavor.
Place the assembled kabobs on the preheated grill. Cook for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and the sausage is heated through with slight grill marks.
Remove from the grill and transfer to a serving platter. Serve immediately and enjoy!
