Charlie's Italian Sausage Sandwich image

Mustard is unbelievably wonderful for this sandwich, a must try! This is a definite comfort food! It is and can also be made using deep fried hot dogs as well. As a kid growing up in NJ, I (Bird) ate these all the often. This is my version that I make at home, as we live just a wee too far a drive to Charlie's in Kenilworth NJ. The original Charlie's uses pizza dough for the crust, so if you'de like, we recommend using Recipe #265466, baking it as a 2 round loaves which will give you 4 sandwiches.

This sandwich was a disappointment. The sausage was dry and the peppers and onions were undercooked.

This recipe was a bit too time-consuming for me. I think I'll try a simpler Italian sausage sandwich recipe next time.

I had some trouble finding the right kind of bread for this sandwich. I ended up using a hoagie roll, which worked out well.

This sandwich was a bit too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use a milder sausage.

I've tried many Italian sausage sandwich recipes but this one is by far the best. The combination of flavors is perfect and the bread is so soft and fluffy.
