Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Slice the hot links on a bias into 2-inch segments.

  2. Step 2

    Sear the sausage pieces 2–3 minutes per side until charred and edges curl. Transfer to a plate.

  3. Step 3

    Add onion and bell pepper to the same skillet. Sauté 4 minutes, stirring once, until edges soften.

  4. Step 4

    Return sausage to the skillet. Stir in chili sauce and vinegar. Cook 1 minute until everything coats.

  5. Step 5

    Toast buns in the skillet 30 seconds per side until golden, working in batches if needed.

  6. Step 6

    Pile sausage and peppers into buns. Top with jalapeños if desired. Serve immediately.
