Grilling the perfect sausages takes patience. The result can be char on the outside and undercooked in the middle if you try to cook them fast over a high heat. Our recipe offers tips and tricks to achieve delicious grilled sausage!

Ingredients

• 6 sausages of your choice
• 6 brioche hot dog buns
• 6 Tbsp. melted butter
• 3 large bell peppers, cut into 1/4″ slices
• 4 medium onions, cut into 1/4″ slices

Instructions

1. To achieve optimum results, grill your sausages over a moderate flame for about 25 minutes, rotating them often with tongs – or until the internal temperature reaches 170°F.
2. Toast your hot dog buns during the last several minutes of cooking your sausages. Brush each of the buns with the melted butter, and place on the grill over low heat to toast through. Use a spatula to remove the buns once they are toasted golden and ready to serve.
3. Peppers and onions are the perfect garnish for sausages. Use a porcelain or stainless steel grid to grill the peppers and onions over a medium-high flame. Use tongs to stir the peppers and onions as they cook through. A little bit of color is desirable and will enhance the flavor.
4. To assemble, place your sausage in the toasted, buttered hot dog bun and top with peppers and onions as well as your choice of condiments.
5. Serve and enjoy!
