Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs hot Italian sausage
- 1 1/2 lbs sweet Italian sausage
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 6 -7 cups red seedless grapes or 6 -7 cups green seedless grapes , stems removed
- 4 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 500°.
-
Parboil the sausages in water to cover for 8 minutes, to rid them of excess fat.
-
Melt the butter in a large roasting pan; add the grapes; toss to coat.
-
With tongs, transfer the parboiled sausages to the roasting pan and push them down into the grapes so the sausages will not brown too quickly.
-
Roast in the oven, turning sausages once, until the grapes are soft and the sausages have browned, 20-25 minutes.
-
With a slotted spoon, transfer the sausages and grapes to a heated serving platter.
-
Place the roasting pan on top of the stove over med-high heat and add the balsamic vinegar; scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the roasting pan, and let the vinegar and juices reduce until they are thick and syrupy.
-
Pour the sauce over the sausages and grapes; serve immediately.
