Serves: 16
Cook Time: 30 Minutes

Ingredients

• 4 pounds Smithfield Smoked Sausage Links
• 4 red bell peppers, stemmed, seeded and sliced into 1/4-inch strips
• 4 green bell peppers, stemmed, seeded and sliced into 1/4-inch strips
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 6 large sweet onions, peeled and thinly sliced
• 6 cloves garlic, crushed
• Salt, to taste
• Ground black pepper, to taste
• 16 long sandwich rolls, sliced lengthwise and toasted

Steps

In large skillet saute peppers in oil until soft, about 5 minutes. Add onions and garlic, season with salt and pepper and continue cooking, stirring frequently, until vegetables are lightly browned, 10-15 minutes. Pepper mixture can be made ahead; reheat at serving time or serve at room temperature.

Prepare fairly hot fire in grill. Grill Smithfield Smoked Sausage directly over hot fire, turning occasionally, until done, about 10 minutes total. Place sausage in rolls, add generous helping of sauteed peppers and onions.

Serving Suggestions

Serve with a chilled beer.
