Ingredients
Sausage patties:
2 pounds ground pork
3 tablespoons kosher salt
2 tablespoons cracked black pepper
3 tablespoons smoked paprika
2 tablespoons fennel seeds
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper, or to taste
2 teaspoons red pepper flakes, or to taste
2 tablespoons garlic, minced
Peppers and onions:
4 tablespoons olive oil
2 red bell peppers, seeded and sliced in rings
2 green bell peppers, seeded and sliced in rings
1 sweet onion, sliced in rings
2 tablespoons salt, or to taste
1 1/2 tablespoons cracked black pepper, or to taste
16 ounces fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced
5 kaiser rolls, split in 1/2
Directions
- Preheat the grill to 350 degrees F.
- In a large bowl mix together the pork and all of the spices. Mix well until evenly distributed. Shape the mixture into 5 equal patties. Grill the patties on each side until cooked to desired doneness, about 4 minutes on each side.
- In a large bowl, add olive oil, peppers, onions, salt and pepper, and toss together. Coat the mozzarella in the oil mixture, and transfer the slices to a large plate.
- Using a grate on top of the grill, arrange the onions and sliced peppers. Close the grill and allow to cook for 1 to 2 minutes on each side.
- Put the sliced peppers, onions and mozzarella on top of each meat patty. Close the grill and cook until the cheese melts, about 1 minute.
- Tuck a sausage patty into each roll and arrange on a serving platter.
- Cook's Note: After assembling each sandwich, gently squeeze the patty together so the bread absorbs some of the juice.
