  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar

Steps

  1. 1

    Heat one side of your grill to medium-high heat and the other to low for indirect cooking. Lightly oil the grates.

  2. 2

    Set the sausages on the cooler side of the grill and let cook about 20 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are mostly cooked through.

  3. 3

    Set them onto the hot side of the grill and cook them another 4-5 minutes per side, until they are nicely browned. The internal temperature should be 150 degrees F.

  4. 4

    While the sausages are cooking, make your salsa by combining all the salsa ingredients in a medium-sized bowl. Toss and set aside.

  5. 5

    Add the chimichurri ingredients to a separate bowl and whisk together. Adjust for salt if you’d like.

  6. 6

    Serve the sausage on toasted buns and top with salsa and chimichurri.
