Grilled Sausages Southern Living Recipes

Steps:

• Place the peppers directly on a gas flame. Char on all sides until the skin burns. Refrigerate to cool quickly, 10 to 15 minutes. Place on a flat surface and open, seed, peel and discard the skin. (I use a kitchen towel to wipe the skin away. Don't rinse the peppers under water, as it washes away flavor.) Slice the peppers into 1/2-inch slices. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and the sugar. Set aside.
• Split the sausages lengthwise. In a large, heavy-bottomed skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Arrange the sausages cut-side down in a single layer in the oil. Sprinkle with salt. Cook, flipping once sausages with tongs, so each one browns hard on both sides, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
• In the same skillet, add the onions and fresh garlic with a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring from time to time with a wooden spoon, until the onions soften, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the peppers and cook for 4 to 5 minutes more. Add the vinegar, granulated garlic, oregano and some Parmesan and stir to combine. Taste for seasoning.
• While the onions are cooking, spread butter on the cut sides of the rolls, then sprinkle with some crushed red pepper flakes. Toast on a griddle over medium-low heat until lightly golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Stuff the rolls with some of the pepper-onion mixture, then top with the sausages, some more pepper-onion mixture and a sprinkle of Parmesan. Serve.

Steps:

• Preheat grill to 350 to 400 (medium-high). Bring sausages and beer to a boil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat, and let stand 10 minutes. Drain.
• Cut a 1/2-inch-deep wedge from top of each roll. Reserve wedges for another use if desired. Cut rolls in half crosswise.
• Grill sausages, covered with grill lid, over medium-high heat 8-10 minutes on each side or to desired degree of doneness.
• Place 1 sausage in each roll half. Spoon desired amount of Sweet Pepper-Onion Relish over each sausage.
• Note: I used Johnsonville Stadium Style Brats and Yuengling Traditional Lager.

Steps:

• First make the mustard mashed potatoes. Cook the potatoes in a large saucepan of boiling water for about 20 minutes, or until tender.
• Place the sausages on a preheated ridged grill pan and cook for 10 minutes, turning them to get an even color. Add the onion wedges and cook with the sausages for 6-7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, drain the cooked potatoes well and return them to the pot. Place over a low heat and allow any excess water to steam away without coloring the potatoes. Remove from heat, then, holding the warm potatoes in a dish towel, peel them carefully. You should be able to squeeze the skins off through the towel. Place in a bowl. Mash well, using a potato masher or fork. Add the butter, wholegrain and English mustards, garlic, and salt and pepper and continue to mash. Taste the potato and add more mustard, or salt and pepper, if desired. Finally, stir in the parsley and a dash of olive oil.
• Serve the mashed potatoes and sausages together with the onion wedges.

Steps:

• Place the first 5 ingredients in a blender; if desired, add pepper sauce. Cover and process until blended., Cut peppers lengthwise in half; remove seeds. Cut eggplant lengthwise into 1/2-in.-thick slices. Cut zucchini and yellow squash lengthwise into quarters. Place all vegetables in a large bowl; drizzle with 1/2 cup of the sauce and toss to coat., Place vegetables on a greased grill rack. Grill, covered, over medium heat 8-10 minutes or until tender and lightly charred, turning once. Cool slightly. Reduce grill temperature to medium-low heat., Cut vegetables into bite-sized pieces. Toss with additional 1/4 cup sauce; keep warm., Grill sausages, covered, over medium-low heat 15-20 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160° for pork sausages (165° for turkey sausages), turning occasionally. Remove sausages from grill; toss with remaining sauce. Serve with vegetables.

Steps:

• Prick each sausage a half-dozen times with a needle or pin stuck in a cork.
• Arrange the onion slices on the bottom of a saute pan just large enough to hold all the sausages.
• Place the sausages on top and add beer and water to cover (the ratio should be 3 parts beer to 1 part water).
• Place the pan over medium heat and gradually bring the liquid to a simmer, not a rapid boil.
• Poach the sausages until half-cooked, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Transfer the sausages to a rack on baking sheet to drain, or drain in a colander.
• Separate the sausages into links.
• Set up grill for direct grilling and preheat to medium-high.
• When ready to cook, brush and oil the grill grate.
• Lightly brush the sausages on all sides with oil and place on the hot grate.
• Grill until the casings are crisp and nicely browned and the sausages are cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes per side.
• You may want to rotate the sausages 90 degrees after 2 minutes on each side to create an attractive crosshatch of grill marks.
• Should flare-ups arise, move the sausages to a different section of the grill.
• Use a slender metal skewer to test for doneness.
• Insert it into the center of one of the sausages: It should come out hot to the touch.
• Transfer the sausages to plates or a platter and let rest for 3 minutes.
• Serve with plenty of mustard.

Steps:

• Prepare grill.
• Grill fresh sausages on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals, turning them, 10 to 15 minutes, or until cooked through (170°F. on an instant-read thermometer). Grill smoked sausages on rack, turning them, 5 to 8 minutes, or until heated through.
• Serve sausages with ketchup and mustards on bread.
• Make the tomato ketchup:
• In a heavy kettle cook onions, garlic, and tomatoes, covered, over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until onions are very soft, about 40 minutes. Force mixture through a food mill fitted with coarse disk into a bowl.
• In cleaned kettle stir together purée, sugar, and vinegar and simmer, uncovered, stirring frequently to prevent scorching, until reduced by half, about 20 minutes.
• Tie cloves, allspice, cinnamon, and celery seed in a cheesecloth bag and add to tomato mixture with mustard and paprika. Simmer mixture, stirring, until very thick, about 10 minutes. Discard bag and season mixture with Tabasco and salt. Ketchup may be made 10 days ahead and chilled, covered.
• Makes about 1 1/2 cups.

Steps:

• Place the lentils, water and baking soda in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave until the lentils are soft, about 20 minutes. Drain, then rinse under cold water.
• Meanwhile, grill the sausages over medium fire, turning frequently, until browned on all sides and cooked through, about 7-9 minutes.
• Whisk the mustard, vinegar and olive oil together in a bowl. Toss the lentils, walnuts and parsley with the dressing and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve the grilled sausages over the salad.
