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.

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.

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.

GRILLED SAUSAGE AND PEPPERS SANDWICHES



Grilled Sausage and Peppers Sandwiches image

A grill basket makes easy work of preparing these satisfying sausage sandwiches. A little sweetness from balsamic vinegar and a dose of heat from the serrano pepper take the flavors to the next level. We brush the buns with herbed oil before stuffing them to the brim and digging in.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 6 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 clove garlic, finely grated
1 1/2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
5 tablespoons olive oil
1 red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded and sliced into 1-inch wide pieces
1 green bell pepper, stemmed, seeded and sliced into 1-inch wide pieces
1 serrano pepper, halved lengthwise, seeds and membranes removed
1 medium yellow onion, trimmed and cut into 1-inch thick wedges
6 sweet Italian sausages (about 1 1/2 pounds)
6 hoagie rolls
12 slices provolone cheese
1 cup store-bought marinara sauce, warmed

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
  • Mix the balsamic vinegar, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a large bowl. Whisking constantly, slowly drizzle in 2 tablespoons olive oil until emulsified. Add the red pepper, green pepper, serrano pepper, onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper and toss until well combined.
  • Place the basket on a baking sheet and transfer the peppers and onions to the center, letting any extra marinade drip off. Place 3 links of sausage on either side of the veggies. Close and secure the basket.
  • Place the grill basket on the grill and cook, flipping once, until the vegetables and sausages start to brown and caramelize and an instant read thermometer inserted into a sausage measures 160 degrees F, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, mix the remaining 3 tablespoons oil, remaining 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a small bowl. Open the hoagie rolls and brush the insides with the herb oil. Grill until toasted, about 1 minute.
  • Remove to a platter and place 2 overlapping slices provolone on each roll (do not allow cheese to hang over the sides). Return the rolls to the grill, cover, and cook until the cheese is melted, about 1 minute. Remove to a platter.
  • Remove the peppers and onions from the basket and slice thinly. Cut each link of sausage in half on a deep bias and place in a hoagie roll. Divide the peppers and onions among the rolls and spoon 2 tablespoons warm marinara on top. Serve the hoagies with the remaining marinara on the side for dipping.

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.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

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.

¼ cup water
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
⅛ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
5 flour tortillas, 8 in (20 cm)
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, for garnish
10 long skewers

Steps:

  • Preheat a gas grill to medium heat.

(Depending on the size of the pan, you may need to work in batches.) Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the tortillas are golden brown, pressing down slightly to seal. Flip and cook on the other side for another 3 minutes, until golden brown and the cheese is melted.

Tips:

  • Choose the right sausage: Italian sausage is usually the most popular choice for this dish, but you can use any type of sausage you like. Just make sure it's a sausage that has a good flavor and that will hold up well to being grilled.
  • Use fresh peppers: Fresh peppers are essential for this dish. They will add a lot of flavor and color. If you can't find fresh peppers, you can use frozen peppers, but they won't be as good.
  • Don't overcrowd the grill: When you're cooking the sausage and peppers, don't overcrowd the grill. This will prevent them from cooking evenly. Leave some space between each piece so that they can cook properly.
  • Cook the sausage and peppers until they're browned: The sausage and peppers should be cooked until they're browned on all sides. This will help to develop their flavor and make them more delicious.
  • Serve the sausage and peppers with your favorite sides: Sausage and peppers can be served with a variety of sides, such as pasta, rice, or roasted vegetables. You can also serve them with a dipping sauce, such as marinara sauce or barbecue sauce.
