Michael Chiarello Shares His Technique for Poaching Sausages

Michael Chiarello teaches his sausage-poaching method to keep them from overcooking and drying out on the grill. He adds raw sweet and hot sausages to a pan filled with cool water, brings them to a simmer, then turns off the heat and lets the sausages cool in the same water. The sausages are then ready to grill. After four minutes per side, the sausages are cooked through and ready to eat.
