Busy weeknights and easy meals are always how it seems to roll in my house! I love that the only thing I have to pick up most nights for this recipe from the grocery store is the sweet bell peppers. The whole family loves this. Even the picky teenage girl loved it! Plus, it works out to be a low carb meal as well.
About Southside Market
I love the Southside Market; I shared about their sausage slammers (see them -> here). After that, I had their beef sausage and garlic sausage and love them both! With crazy work hours, I love that it comes frozen, and I just pull it out the night before our dinner or breakfast to cook with.

Either kind of sausage, beef sausage or garlic sausage, will be amazing in this simple recipe. I had the garlic sausage on hand, so I went with that. Both are full of flavor and so good!

How To Make Blackstone Sausage And Peppers
*If you don’t have a Blackstone griddle this can also be made as a skillet in an electric skillet or a large skillet as well. *
Start by cutting the bell peppers, red onion, yellow squash, and zucchini. For the bell pepper, I cut off the bottom and then created my slices of the peppers on a cutting board that way. The combination of the peppers is full of so much flavor and a great way to flavor
Slice your Southside garlic sausages into about 1-inch thick rounds.
Place all the sausage and vegetables in a large container or a large bowl.
Drizzle the sausage and peppers with your olive oil and seasonings.
Use a large spoon, or a spatula to mix it up, or if the container has a lid shake the container to coat the food with the oil and the seasonings evenly. We chose to do a container so it could be shaken to season the vegetables and sausage.
Fire up your Blackstone griddle and re-oil it down. I always keep mine ready to go, so all I have to do is turn it on and re-oil it. (Check out my tips for Caring For Your Blackstone -> here)
Turn the burners of your Blackstone Griddle to medium heat.
Once your griddle is hot, throw everything from the container onto the griddle. I tested this by dropping a slice of zucchini on the griddle. When it sizzled, I knew the griddle was hot enough to cook.
Southside Sausage does come fully cooked, so the Blackstone is rewarding the meat up to be served. If your sausage is not fully cooked, it will need to cook longer until the correct food-safe temperature is reached it needs to cook. Allow the sausage in that case to cook longer before adding in the vegetables for this recipe.
Stir often and cook for about 15 minutes.
If the food starts to stick to the griddle surface, add a bit more vegetable oil.
Once the vegetables are cooked and the sausage is fully reheated, remove and serve. Sausage should always be heated to an internal temperature of 165°F

How To Store Leftover Sausage and Peppers
Allow to cool and store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to three days.
How To Reheat Leftover Sausage and Peppers
You can reheat the peppers and sausage in the microwave.
On the stove, warm up a large skillet on medium-high heat. Place the leftovers in a hot skillet, and cook the peppers and sausage for a couple of minutes until they are warmed back up.
Right on the Blackstone griddle, I did this when I made leftovers into a quesadilla. Fire up the Blackstone to medium heat when the griddle is heated, and throw the leftovers on until it is reheated. This was the perfect next day lunch recipe and a great way to use up the leftovers.
