Tip #2 When grilling make sure grill is hot hot hot before you begin.

Once grill is hot, lower to medium heat and place the sausages on them. Grill until golden brown on each side and remove from heat. Once balsamic vinegar has reduced add in half of the garlic, a dash of olive oil, a good amount of brown sugar, and all of the spices to taste. Set aside on medium low heat.

Tip #3 Mix it up and use a gourmet flavored olive oil (Garlic or Chipotle)

Now add some olive oil into medium sized pan on medium heat. Place in the rest of the garlic, onions, and peppers and let them cook until soft. While veggies are cooking please slice sausages and add them into the pan with the vegetables. Let them sizzle! Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook your spaghetti.
