- Fresh green beans
- Yellow onion
- Salt & pepper
- Olive oil
- Butter
How to make sausage & veggies on the grill:
Start by chopping and slicing up your veggies into bite-sized pieces. Next, you’ll cut the smoked sausage into 1-inch rounds.
Meanwhile, preheat your grill to high heat.
On a large surface, spread out a BIG piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Pack in all your veggies and sausage, and seasoning with the salt, pepper, and olive oil.
Then, you’ll begin to wrap up the veggies with the foil, kind of like you’re folding a burrito. Leave a small space open on the top. Pour in 1/2 cup of water (this help to steam the veggies in the foil packet), and then seal completely.
Note: you may need to wrap with some additional foil pieces if your foil roll is small – that’s okay! My foil packet looked pretty ugly going on the grill but still gave us a yummy dinner.
Place the foil packet on a grilling sheet (like a baking sheet but made for the grill) or directly onto the grill grates. Grill for about 25-30 minutes, turning the whole packet over once halfway through.
