Instructions
Method by grillnationbbq.com. Cook it from their page if you can, so the people who developed and tested it get the visit.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, 375 to 400°F. Slice the burger buns in half. Place them cut-side down on the grill grates. Toast for 2 to 3 minutes until golden brown with grill marks. Remove and set aside.
- Hollow out the top half of each toasted bun by pressing down with your fingers. Create a shallow cavity that can hold cheese. Remove some soft interior bread but leave walls about half an inch thick for structure.
- Place 1 to 2 slices of cheese inside each hollowed-out top bun. Press down gently so the cheese fills the cavity and sits flush with the rim.
- Divide the raw Italian sausage into 6 portions, about 3 to 4 ounces each. Form each into a thick patty slightly larger than your bun. Press the raw sausage firmly onto the cheese-filled top bun. Season the top with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Place the sausage-topped rolls on the grill, sausage-side up. Close the lid and cook for 12 to 15 minutes until the sausage reaches 160°F internally. The sausage should be browned and fully cooked. Don't flip the rolls.
- Mix chopped parsley, diced onion, minced garlic, olive oil, and salt in a small bowl. Once the sausage is cooked, remove rolls from the grill. Immediately spoon the herb mixture over the hot sausage.
- Place each sausage-topped bun on its bottom half. Serve immediately while the cheese is melted and gooey. Serve with marinara for dipping if desired.
