Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
In a medium bowl, use a fork to break up the bulk sausage.
Add the minced garlic, the 3 tablespoons minced basil, the salt, and the pepper, and blend the ingredients with the fork. Form balls of the sausage mixture, the same size as the cherry tomatoes. (The heat of your hands will soften the fat in the meat and bind the shape.)
Place the meatballs on a rimmed baking sheet.
Bake until they are brown and have rendered their fat into the baking sheet, 12 minutes.
Thread the meatballs, bocconcini, and cherry tomatoes onto 12-inch bamboo skewers, alternating and using 2 of each per skewer.
Drizzle olive oil over the skewers and sprinkle with the remaining minced basil.
