TAILGATING SAUSAGES

Steps:

• In a small food processor, combine the sugar and giardiniera; cover and process until blended.
• Make a slit lengthwise 3/4 of the way through the sausage, starting and stopping 1/2 inch from the end. Fill with the giardiniera mixture and to with the provolone cheese.
• Place sausages in the buns; wrap individually in a double thickness of heavy-duty foil. Place on a medium-hot grill in the parking lot of the stadium, and heat through until the cheese is melted, about 8 minutes.
