Grilled Sausage and Onion Hoagie

Grilled sausage and onions is a classic duo that’s just so reliably delicious! Sweet yellow onions are ideal because they cook quickly and taste almost caramelized when grilled. This dish is super easy to make and can be prepared on a whim if needed. Sausage and onions both have bold flavors that play off each other well and require little else. That’s why it’s so easy to throw this together in a bun.

This is a quick and easy dish for potlucks, picnics, or an average weeknight around the dinner table with the family. It also requires few dishes and equipment so clean-up should be a breeze. If you want, you could even grill bell peppers to put on top of the sausage and onion!

You can also add desired toppings like sauerkraut or mustard on top — But the taste of the simply grilled onions and sausage seasoned with a small sprinkle of Private Seasoning Rub is enough to complete the hoagie. Toast the bun, if desired, and be sure to serve these hot and fresh.
