Whether you grill it, pan-fry it or broil it, sausage blends well with a host of other foods. Properly prepared, sausage adds a protein punch to many dishes. Here are 3 ways to prepare it:

  • Grill it: Place links on a gas grill over a medium flame for 15 – 20 minutes. Turn links often until golden brown.
  • Pan-fry it: Heat a pan to medium temperature. Add 6 tablespoons of water and place links in the pan. Cover the pan and continue to heat for 10 – 12 minutes turning the links often. Remove cover and continue to cook for another 5 – 10 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Broil it: Place links on broiler rack at least 7 – 9 inches below the heat. Broil for about 13 – 15 minutes each side until golden brown.
