Juicy pork sausages and roasted veggies. All stuffed into a crusty bun.

You now have two choices when it comes to sausage and peppers: you can work the grill and the skillet simultaneously, or you can throw everything onto one pan and kick back with a cold one. That’s what I’m mostly about these days; the easier, the better. And when it comes out just as tasty, why the heck not? Here we’ve baked juicy sweet Italian sausages next to crunchy bell peppers, red onions, and earthy mushrooms, and stuffed them into a crusty bun with melt-y provolone and a swoon-worthy mustard sauce.

Seriously. You’ll want to whip up this sweet and smoky mustard sauce.

Nothing finishes off sausage on a bun better than a good mustard. Tangy, spicy, sweet—we love them all! But this one brings sweet and smoky to every bite and it’s a dream. It’s also incredibly easy to throw together, and you can do it while everything is in the oven.

The gist on making Sheet Pan Sausage and Peppers on a Bun.

Preheat the oven to 400º F. While the oven heats up, prepare your vegetables; chop them up, transfer them to a mixing bowl, and toss them in a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper. They really don’t need any more flavoring than that! Place the sausages onto a sheet pan along with the vegetables. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring the veggies halfway through. About 5 minutes before the sausages are ready, top them with a slice of provolone cheese so it gets all nice and melt-y. At this point, you can also toast the buns on a separate sheet pan or make room on your current sheet pan. When done, remove the pan from the oven, scoop the cheesy sausages into a bun, and top with veggies and a few dollops of the mustard sauce.

While everything is in the oven, whip up the mustard sauce by stirring everything into a bowl together. That’s seriously it.

Recipe notes + tips.

Here I’ve used sweet Italian sausages, but you can swap them for any other type of sausage. The veggies and mustard sauce will pair well with any flavor.

Melting cheese and toasting buns is optional. You could skip this step and simply place the cheese slices into untoasted buns, then top them with the fresh-out-of-the-oven sausages and veggies; the cheese will melt on its own.

If you’re not feeling making this particular mustard sauce, no big deal. Throw any mustard onto these bad boys.
