It's about to be grilling season again... which at my house means pool party time! I'll often have large groups of my friends and family over to enjoy our many sunny Southern California days. We often like to fire up the grill and make sausages for everyone. Here is one of my favorite recipes!

Cheese stuffed, Bacon wrapped sausages

Pederson's sausages (any type or flavor)

Pederson's uncured bacon of your choice (1 slice per sausage)

slices of cheddar or american cheese (1 slice per 2 sausages)

a few toothpicks

fresh bakery buns or rolls

Toppings of your choice - we suggest sauerkraut, mustard, ketchup, BBQ sauce, A1, grilled peppers and onions, etc.

Just slice the sausages half way through length wise, leaving a hinge. Cut the cheese slices in half inch strips. Slip one or two strips in each sausage to completely cover the length of the sausage. Wrap with one slice of bacon per sausage and secure ends with a toothpick. Grill, on a piece of aluminum foil to catch the bacon drippings, over medium heat for 12-15 minutes or until bacon is done. Be sure the grill isn't too hot or the bacon will burn before the sausage is heated all the way through.
