A sausage sandwich with peppers and onions was one of my favorite fair foods that I always looked forward to until I learned how to make it myself.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 25 servings

  • 5 pounds Italian sausage links

  • 2 (28 ounce) cans whole peeled tomatoes

  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes

  • 1 (29 ounce) can tomato sauce

  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder

  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning

  • 1 tablespoon white sugar

  • 1 tablespoon onion powder

  • 4 large green bell peppers, thickly sliced

  • 3 large onions, thickly sliced

  • 25 (6 inch) Italian-style hoagie buns

Directions

  1. Cut sausages apart into individual links if necessary. Cook links in a large skillet over medium heat until browned on all sides. Set sausages aside and reserve the pan drippings.

  2. Pour whole tomatoes, crushed tomatoes, and tomato sauce into a large saucepan with a lid. Stir in Parmesan, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, sugar, and onion powder. Bring to a boil, then add sausages, pan drippings, green peppers, and onions. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until vegetables are very tender and sauce has thickened, about 6 hours. Serve on Italian hoagie buns.
