Winter Squash Stuffed with Hot Italian Sausage   4 comments

For the last several weeks I have seen a pile of colorful winter squash at the local grocery store, and wanted to roast some in my Big Green Egg. So I finally tried this, using a recipe from food.com. It is simple to make and very tasty when smoke-roasted on the BGE.

The original recipe can be found here.

Here are some pictures of how I did my Sunday dinner. . .

The smoke flavor, the tender squash and the pork sausage go very well together – Give this simple recipe a try, it’s mighty tasty!
