GRILLED SAUSAGES AND RADICCHIO
For at least one meal at your summer rental, serve sausages. They come seasoned and self-contained, with no need for condiments or sauces. After a long trip, you just throw them on the grill or under a broiler, and serve with a salad on the side. Or, even better, toss them into your salad (in this case, a lightly grilled radicchio salad), letting their fat flavor the leaves along with the lemon juice and good olive oil you also packed.

Steps:
- Light or heat up the grill. Halve radicchios lengthwise through stem end, and toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil (or more if you need it to coat) and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Put radicchios, cut side down, and sausages on the grill and cover. Let cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until outer radicchio leaves are dark brown. Transfer to a cutting board and let cool while sausages finish cooking, about 5 minutes more.
- When cool enough to handle, thinly slice radicchios. The outsides should be charred, and the insides should still be crisp and raw. Combine in a bowl with another 2 tablespoons olive oil and the juice of half a lemon. Taste and correct seasonings, adding lemon juice, salt and olive oil to taste.
- Spread radicchio on a platter and top with grilled sausages. Garnish with basil and serve.

GRILLED ITALIAN SAUSAGE WITH PEPPERS AND ONIONS
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.

Steps:
- Remove the stems and quarter the radicchio heads. Mix the balsamic, olive oil, chili flakes and chopped garlic to make a marinade. Submerge the radicchio, cut-side down, in the marinade for 1 hour prior to grilling.
- Crumble the sausage into a medium saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until fully rendered and slightly browned, 8 to 12 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the cooked sausage to a tray lined with paper towels.
- Remove the radicchio from the marinade, reserving the marinade itself for dressing the finished radicchio. Grill the radicchio over an open flame starting with the cut-side down, and rotating until slightly charred on the outside (we suggest a charcoal grill, but if not using an outdoor grill, a griddle or grill pan would suffice). Once cooked, remove to a tray to cool. When the radicchio is cool, chop into 1-inch squares and toss with the reserved marinade.
- Roll out the pizza dough into three 12-inch circles, 1/4-inch thick.
- Start by grilling 1 pizza over medium-high heat on the grill. Once the bottom has a slight char, flip the pizza and top with some of the grilled radicchio, cooked sausage, chopped rosemary and taleggio slices (about 3 per pizza). Cover with the grill lid to melt the cheese and crisp the bottom, just a few minutes. Remove the pizza from the grill with a wide spatula to a cutting board. Let cool for a few minutes, and then slice into 6 or 8 pieces. Repeat with the remaining dough and ingredients.
- Combine the flour, 3/4 cup water, yeast and sugar in the mixing bowl of a stand mixer. Knead on medium speed for 10 minutes. Place in an oiled bowl and allow the dough to rest for 1 hour, covered, in a draft-free spot.
- Punch down and shape the dough into two to three 10-ounce balls. Allow to proof on an oiled tray or container covered with a towel or lid until almost doubled in size.

Steps:
- Melt butter with 1 teaspoon olive oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add red onions and cook until soft and golden brown, stirring often, about 25 minutes. Add radicchio and sauté until wilted, about 2 minutes. Add balsamic vinegar and cook over medium-high heat until liquid is absorbed, about 1 minute. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Keep onion-radicchio mixture warm while preparing sausages.
- Heat remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil in another heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken-apple sausages and cook until sausages are well browned and heated through, turning frequently, about 5 minutes.
- Serve onion-radicchio mixture alongside sausages.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use high-quality sausages. Look for sausages made with fresh, flavorful meat and spices.
- To prevent the sausages from drying out, grill them over medium heat. Cook the sausages until they are cooked through, but not overcooked.
- If you are using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling. This will help to prevent them from burning.
- Serve the sausages with your favorite sides. Some popular options include grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a simple green salad.
- If you are making the radicchio salad, be sure to use a sharp knife to slice the radicchio. This will help to prevent the radicchio from wilting.
- The salad dressing is a simple vinaigrette, made with olive oil, vinegar, and Dijon mustard. You can also add a bit of honey or maple syrup to sweeten the dressing.
Conclusion:
Grilled sausages and radicchio is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a summer cookout. The sausages are grilled until they are cooked through and slightly charred, and the radicchio salad is a refreshing and flavorful accompaniment. This meal is sure to be a hit with your friends and family.
