I do, that's who! I bet some of you do too. Here in the so-called Pacific Northwet, it's cold, damp and foggy outside. A perfect night for Sausage, Onions and Peppers. Served up on a baguette with a glass of ale and all is right with the world.

For those of you thinking "pictures, we need pictures" about all I can offer is an image of dirty dishes. Sorr-yyyy! :D

How many of you enjoy Sausage, Onions and Peppers?

It’s very popular here in the Northeast especially in Italian community. All the pizza places here sell sausage & pepper grinders. Also we have a few sausage companies making very good chicken sausage.

A buddy from Long Island taught me the technique. His Mom was Italian and his Dad Polish. Or maybe I have that backward. Either way, they can cook! We're lucky enough around here to have Isernio's sausage. It's the real thing down to the natural casings.
 
I buy caninos sausage here in Denver
The guy down the road has an Italian sausage unlike anything I’ve had before,it’s very good. I suspect he’s importing it or having it made locally.

Almost always have it on freezer standby.
We get the Costco 4-pack of sweet Italian sausage (5 sausage each) and keep them in the freezer.
Fry up a big batch of red peppers and onions, and separate into Snaplok containers for freezing.
When the mood strikes, thaw contents and buy a nice Italian or French bread.

What peppers are those zip?

Red bell

Edit: Be sure when you prep the peppers for cooking, after you cut and wash them, pat them thoroughly dry with paper towels (even let air dry afterward) before frying, otherwise the consistency changes from cooking with that bit of water.

Thank you! Do you skin em or leave it on?
Skin stays on.

BTW, the cooked peppers and onions survives freezing beautifully in Snaploks.

I fry the peppers in olive oil first.
Halfway through cooking peppers, add onions, finished cooking when starting to brown.
Season at end with salt, pepper, and a couple of tablespoons of canned tomato sauce for color.

Been baking the sausage in a glass casserole dish at 375 on middle rack, turning several times. Save them with the drippings.

Thanks! I’ve been trying to figure this out forever lol
 
My aunt and uncle who live near me and I used to go to the Great Frederick Fair in Frederick, MD and we always went to the stand that served the great sausage, peppers and onions sandwiches. Between my aunt's disability and COVID we haven't gone for a few years but I think this year maybe I will go back and indulge myself in one of these sandwiches again.
 
Back when Baltimore was just a normal city, there were ethnic festivals (German, Italian, Irish, Polish, Afro, etc.) all through the summer, and then the big City Fair at the Inner Harbor. Stands selling sausage, onions, and green peppers were all over those events.

I think every sub shop in this region has it on the menu... :)
