ITALIAN SAUSAGE HOAGIES
In southeastern Wisconsin, our cuisine is influenced by both Germans and Italians who immigrated to this area. When preparing this recipe, we usually substitute German bratwurst for the Italian sausage, so we blend the two influences with delicious results. -Craig Wachs, Racine, Wisconsin

ITALIAN SAUSAGE HOAGIES
Soooooo yummy. I'm posting this for ZWT 2006 (Italian region) This is a very hearty sandwich but so tasty that if i'm hungry, even having the small appetite that I do, I can down one and a half of these buggers. Guys and kids love these. This is also easy to double if you have more people to feed.

Steps:
- To prepare the onion-pepper mixture, slice the peppers into long strips about 1/2 inch thick and thinly slice the onions.
- Sauté both together in a heavy pan in a few tablespoons of olive oil until they are soft and onions are beginning to turn golden brown.
- Make a garlic butter by mashing together about two cloves of roasted garlic (if you don't want to roast it yourself, jars of roasted garlic can be found at most grocery stores these days) with 4 tablespoons of olive oil.
- Grill or pan fry the sausages until cooked through (it helps to preboil them for about 5 minutes; it cuts down on the grease and grilling/frying time); slice the buns and grill lightly once the sausages are ready; alternatively, the buns can be lightly browned in either a toaster or a hot lightly oiled pan.
- Brush the buns with the garlic butter, carefully put 1/4 cup mozzarella on one side of each bun and place in each bun a sausage and a good amount of the pepper-onion mixture and serve hot.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality Italian sausage: Look for sausage made with fresh, flavorful pork and seasoned with classic Italian herbs and spices. Avoid sausages that are overly processed or contain fillers.
- Cook the sausage properly: Whether you're grilling, pan-frying, or baking the sausage, make sure it is cooked through to an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) to ensure safety and optimal taste.
- Use a variety of toppings: Don't just stick to the classic toppings like peppers and onions. Experiment with different ingredients like roasted red peppers, mushrooms, or even pineapple for a unique flavor combination.
- Choose the right bread: The bread is an important part of any hoagie, so make sure you choose a sturdy bread that can hold up to the fillings. Italian bread, hoagie rolls, or sub rolls are all great options.
- Don't be afraid to customize: The beauty of hoagies is that they are highly customizable. Feel free to add or remove ingredients to suit your preferences. If you don't like peppers, leave them out. If you want extra cheese, go for it!
