Ingredients

  • 1 lb Italian sausage

Instructions

  • Put Italian sausages in a pot and cover them with water (add enough water to go 1 inch above the sausage).
  • Bring the water to a boil over High heat, and once boiling cook for another 10 minutes.
  • Remove the sausages from water using tongs (or drain in a collander).
  • If you'd like to brown sausages, cook them on a grill for 1 minute per side, or put under the broiler for 5 minutes.

Notes

You can add beer to water to add more flavor to the sausage.
