Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat your grill over medium high heat (approximately 350-400 degrees F).
  • Mix the hot Italian sausage and mild Italian sausage together with your hands in you a large bowl.  Then form them into 6 patties that are approximately 1/3 pound each.
  • Use your middle finger to make an approximately 2 inch indentation into the center of each of the patties to prevent them from puffing up when they are grilled.
  • Place the patties on the grill over direct heat.  Cook for 4-5 minutes without moving the patties.
  • Flip the patties and grill the other side of the patties for 4-5 more minutes until the patties are cooked through. Place the cheese on the patties for the last minute of the cook time.
  • Place the hamburger buns on the grill for 1 minute to warm and toast the buns slightly.
  • While the patties are cooking, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.  Add the peppers and onions.  Season with salt and pepper.
  • Sauté the peppers and onions until they are just tender (approximately 7-8 minutes).
  • Remove from heat.  Serve the patties on the toasted buns topped with the pepper and onion mixture.  Enjoy!

Notes

These are best served fresh off the grill.
