GRILLED ITALIAN SAUSAGE WITH PEPPERS AND ONIONS



Grilled Italian Sausage with Peppers and Onions image

Italian sausage, bell peppers, and onions made easy on the grill. You can also serve the sausage in hot dog buns and finely chop the veggies once grilled as a "relish". I like to add a squirt of mustard when I serve them this way.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 pound Italian hot sausage
1 large red onion, cut into 1/4-inch thick slices
2 large yellow pepper, cored, seeded and quartered
2 large red pepper, cored, seeded and quartered
Olive oil
Salt and pepper
1 recipe favorite pizza dough, rolled into 4 (6-inch) rounds

1/4 cup white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill.
  • Grill the sausage on both sides until golden brown and cooked through, about 10 minutes per side. Brush onions and peppers with the oil and season with salt and pepper.

Remove the onions, separate into rings, and roughly chop. Remove the peppers and slice into 1/8-inch thick slices.

Place the pizza on sheet pans and bake until the cheese has melted, about 5 to 10 minutes.

GRILLED SAUSAGE AND PEPPER HEROES



Grilled Sausage and Pepper Heroes image

This hearty sandwich comes together quickly on a small portable grill, making it perfect for a tailgate or picnic. Make the balsamic vinaigrette at home and take it along in a small jar. You can purchase the Italian sausage ring (shaped like a spiral) at an Italian butcher. If you can't get the cheese and parsley flavor, use any flavor you like. If you'd like to make this on a full-size grill, you can cook everything at once and remove the ingredients as they finish cooking.

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
2 cloves garlic, crushed and peeled
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 red bell pepper, top and bottom removed, cut into 4 planks
1 yellow bell pepper, top and bottom removed, cut into 4 planks
1 large sweet onion, peeled and sliced into 1/4-inch-thick rings
One 1 1/2-pound Italian pork sausage ring, preferably cheese and parsley flavor
Four 6-to-8-inch hoagie rolls, split
8 slices provolone (about 6 ounces)

Steps:

  • Combine the olive oil, vinegar, oregano, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper in a small jar or other lidded container. Shake to combine. Soak 2 long wooden skewers in water for 15 minutes (alternatively, use metal skewers).
  • Preheat a small grill to medium-high heat and brush with olive oil. Brush the peppers and onions with 2 to 3 tablespoons of the dressing. Stick the skewers through the sausage ring at a perpendicular angle to each other (in an X). Place the sausage ring in the middle of the grill and cook until the underside is charred, 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Flip the sausage ring with tongs and a spatula and arrange the peppers around the ring. Grill the sausage until browned and crispy in places and cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes more. Transfer to a cutting board. Add the onion rings to the empty space on the grill. Cook the peppers and onions until crisp-tender and charred on the edges, about 4 minutes per side (the peppers will come off first, since you put them on first). Transfer the vegetables to a cutting board as they finish cooking.
  • Brush the cut sides of the rolls with olive oil and grill, cut-side down, until toasted, about 1 minute. Flip and lay 2 slices of cheese on the grilled cut sides of each roll and cook until the cheese just begins to melt, moving as needed so they don't burn, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Remove the skewers from the sausage, cut into serving pieces 4 to 5 inches long and divide evenly among the rolls. Cut the peppers into strips and separate the onions into rings. Pile on top of the sausage. Drizzle the heroes with the remaining dressing and serve immediately.

GRILLED SAUSAGES, ONIONS AND PEPPERS



Grilled Sausages, Onions and Peppers image

There is no more reliable guest at a cookout than sausage, roasted over the open fire. But before you grill the meat, get some peppers and onions soft and dark and fragrant in the heat, and use these as a bed on which to serve the links. Italian sausage works beautifully here, as do hot links and bratwurst. If cooking brats, think about simmering them first in beer and onions, then finishing them on the fire.

Provided by Sam Sifton

Categories     barbecues, main course

Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound sweet peppers (green, red and yellow, if available) seeded and cut into eighths
2 large yellow onions, peeled and cut into large coins
3 to 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, more to taste
1/4 teaspoon salt, more to taste
2 pounds sweet or hot Italian sausages, or bratwurst or other fresh sausage

Steps:

  • Build a fire in your grill, leaving one side free of coals. When coals are covered with gray ash and the temperature is medium (you can hold your hand 5 inches above the coals for 5 to 7 seconds), you are ready to cook. (For a gas grill, turn all burners to high, lower cover and heat for 15 minutes, then turn burners to medium.)
  • Meanwhile, toss peppers and onions with oil and sprinkle with salt. Lightly prick sausages all over so that they do not burst.
  • Put peppers and onions in a grill basket or directly on the grill, turning occasionally until they are softened and dark at the edges, 10 to 12 minutes. Move them to the side of the grill without coals.
  • Place the sausages on the hot side of the grill, cover and cook, turning occasionally until they are cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Transfer the peppers and onions to a platter and top with the sausages. Drizzle with olive oil and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Sausage: Opt for a flavorful sausage that can withstand the heat of the grill without drying out. Italian sausage, kielbasa, or bratwurst are all good options.
  • Grill the Sausage First: This will ensure that the sausage is cooked through before being added to the pizza.
  • Use Fresh Peppers: Fresh peppers will add a vibrant flavor and color to the pizza. Bell peppers, poblano peppers, or jalapeños are all good choices.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Pizza: Make sure there is enough space between the toppings so that they can cook evenly.
  • Use a Pizza Stone or Baking Sheet: A pizza stone or baking sheet will help to create a crispy crust.
  • Cook the Pizza at a High Temperature: This will help to create a crispy crust and prevent the toppings from becoming soggy.
  • Let the Pizza Rest Before Slicing: This will allow the flavors to meld and the cheese to set.

Conclusion:

Grilled sausage and pepper pizza is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a casual gathering. With its smoky sausage, roasted peppers, and melted cheese, this pizza is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. So fire up the grill and get ready to enjoy a slice of this flavorful pizza!
