T1's Sausage and Peppers Hero

From Auntie's Cook Book

This is a messy sandwich, but soooo worth it.

  • 1 lb of Italian Sausage
  • 1 red pepper, sliced
  • 1 poblano pepper, sliced
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 small onion, sliced
  • 1 cup of beer (Ale is a good choice)
  • ½ cup beef/chicken/vegetable broth
  • 1 tbls butter
  • 2 tbls cornstarch mixed with 2 oz water (slurry)
  • 2 tbls Olive oil
  • Fresh mozzarella, sliced (I can’t stress enough that it should be fresh and hand-made)
  1. Heat olive oil in pan and brown sausages whole for 5 min, remove sausage and keep warm
  2. Melt butter and add garlic, onions and peppers. Saute for 2 min.
  3. Pour in beer and broth, bring to gentle boil. Scrape up any brown bits on bottom
  4. Pour in slurry, let it cook for 1 min. If it becomes too thick, just add beer.
  5. Slice sausages on bias (they’ll still be pink inside), add to pan. Mix up sausages, cook for 5 min of until sausage slices are no longer pink.
  6. Place slices of mozzarella on bottom of split rolls and fill with the goodness
