Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 2 servings; can be doubled

Ingredients

8 ounces pork sausage (preferably hot breakfast sausage)
1/2 cup diced green bell pepper
2/3 cup bottled barbecue sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 1/2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 onion rolls, split
1/2 cup purchased coleslaw

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Gently mix sausage and green bell pepper in medium bowl. Form into two 1/2-inch-thick patties. (Can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)

    Step 2

    Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Whisk barbecue sauce, maple syrup, and vinegar in medium bowl to blend well. Reserve 1/3 cup sauce to baste patties.

    Step 3

    Grill rolls until lightly toasted. Transfer to 2 plates. Grill patties 5 minutes. Turn patties over. Brush with sauce. Grill until cooked through, brushing occasionally with sauce, about 5 minutes longer. Place burgers on bottom halves of rolls. Top each burger with 1/4 cup coleslaw and top half of roll. Serve, passing remaining sauce separately.
