Cooking sausages requires certain skills. Perfectly cooked sausages should be covered with a golden crisp and well done on the inside. This article discusses several ways to make sausages. It is not recommended to cook frozen sausages.

Steps

Method 1 of 3: Cook the sausages in the oven

1. 1 Preheat oven to 190 ° C. The temperature may differ depending on the type of oven. It is recommended to preheat an electric oven to 190 ° C, while a gas oven can be preheated to 170 ° C.
2. 2 Measure out 1 tablespoon of olive oil, grease a baking sheet with it and place on a baking sheet of sausages. Before baking the sausages, roll them on the baking sheet so that they are covered with oil on all sides.
   • To avoid staining the baking sheet, cover it with a sheet of foil.
3. 3 Bake the sausages for 20-25 minutes, remembering to turn them over. Turn the sausages over 2-3 times throughout the cooking time. Due to this, they will bake well and will be covered with a golden crust.
   • The golden crust can be either light or dark. The color of the crust may differ for different varieties of sausages.
4. 4 Measure the temperature of the inside of the sausages with a meat thermometer. The temperature of the inside of the finished sausage should be approximately 70 ° C. Cut a sausage and see if it's baked enough. Make sure there is no pink meat left inside and the meat juice is clear.
   • If it seems to you that the meat has not reached its condition, put the baking sheet back in the oven for 5 minutes, then check the cookiness of the sausages again.

Method 2 of 3: Grill the sausages

1. 1 Preheat grill to medium heat for 10-15 minutes. Once the grill has warmed up, turn off the two burners to create an indirect heat zone.
2. 2 Place the sausages on a wire rack over the indirect heat zone. Using the wire rack, the sausages can be positioned slightly away from the fire so they cook more evenly. If your grill has a top and bottom grate, use the top one.
   • If you don't have a grate, make one out of foil. Take a piece of foil about 30 cm long and twist it into a bundle. Then fold it in a snake and place the sausages on top of it.
3. 3 Grill sausages for 15 minutes with the lid closed. After 7-8 minutes, turn the sausages upside down. This is necessary so that the sausages are covered with a golden crust on both sides and are evenly fried inside.
4. 4 Use a meat thermometer to measure the temperature of the inside of the sausages. The temperature of the inside of the finished sausage should be about 70 ° C. If the sausages are at the correct temperature, transfer them to a direct heat zone for 3 minutes to brown until golden brown. Turn the sausages over and sauté the other side for another 1-3 minutes.
   • Frying sausages until golden brown is optional. If the sausages are completely fried inside - they are ready to eat!
   • If the inside temperature of the sausage is less than 70 ° C, close the grill lid and cook the sausages for another 5 minutes, then re-evaluate the degree of doneness.

Method 3 of 3: Saute the sausages in a skillet

1. 1 Place the sausages in a saucepan and cover them completely with cold water. Place a saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil. The water will begin to boil in 6-8 minutes.
   • In boiling water, the sausages will come to readiness and become soft.
2. 2 Use a fast thermometer to check the inside temperature of the sausages. It should be at least 70 ° C. The outside of the sausages will still be pale, but there should be no pink meat on the inside and the meat juice should be clear.
3. 3 Brush liberally with olive oil on the top of the skillet. Place the skillet over high heat and wait for the oil to boil.
4. 4 Place the sausages in a skillet with boiling oil. The sausages do not need to be fried for a long time, as they have already been pre-cooked. As soon as the sausages are golden brown, turn off the stove so they don't dry out or burn.
   • You can put whole sausages in the pan, or you can cut them in half (both lengthwise and across) or into several pieces.

Tips

• Sausage packages may indicate the cooking method, and may also contain a warning about the need to defrost the product before cooking.

Warnings

• If you are making red meat sausages such as pork, ground beef, veal or lamb, they must be cooked to a temperature of 75 ° C.
• Chicken sausages are cooked at 70 ° C.
