Ham Garlic Sausage with Pineapple Salsa Sliders

These easy pull apart Ham Garlic Sausage and Pineapple Salsa Sliders are the best appetizer for relaxed nights hanging out with friends and family.

Soft Hawaiian butter rolls, loaded with Grimm’s Fine Foods Ham Garlic Sausage, a healthy squeeze of chipotle aioli and yellow mustard. Topped with a grilled pineapple, red pepper, jalapeño, red onion, cilantro salsa, plus a mix of mozzarella and provolone cheese. Then brushed with garlic butter before being baked.

Each little pull apart slider is packed with flavour. Ooey, gooey, cheesy on the inside, golden and toasted on the outside. Serve these sliders warm because nothing beats a melty, messy pull apart slider cheese pull!

We like to serve these with extra pineapple salsa, jalapeños, pickled hot peppers and basil leaves on the side.

Grimm’s Fine Foods Ham Garlic Sausage is expertly crafted using the finest quality ingredients, plus traditional European values, and techniques. We highly recommend buying an extra coil to serve with mustard for dipping. These sausages are sure to be a crowd pleaser!

Instructions

Grill the Sausage

Preheat the grill to medium-high.

Score the sausage (on one side) diagonally, every ½ inch. Grill the sausage on both sides for 6-8 minutes or until nicely charred on both sides. When cool enough to manage, slice the sausage through the precut scores.

Pineapple Salsa

Grill the pineapple slices for about 4-5 minutes or until light grill marks appear, flipping halfway through.

When the pineapple is cool enough to manage, remove the center core and slice into small cubes. Place into a medium bowl. Then add the red onions, jalapeño slices, red pepper, basil, lime juice, a sprinkle of salt and mix until combined. Set aside.

Build the Ham Garlic Sausage with Pineapple Salsa Sliders

Slice the Hawaiian buns (if necessary) keeping the top and bottoms together if possible. Grill/toast the inside of the buns until golden about 1-3 minutes depending on how hot your grill is.

Spread a layer of aioli on the bottom bun. Next, layer on the mozzarella slices. Then place the sausage on (two slices per bun).

Drain the salsa of excess liquid, then add a small portion of salsa on each bun. Layer on the provolone, then spread mustard on the inside of the top buns and place over the provolone. Brush the top of the buns with garlic butter.

Melt the Cheese

Turn off one side of the grill and leave the other on medium heat.

Wrap the sliders in aluminum foil and place on a sheet pan. Place them on the side of the grill without heat and close the lid. Cook for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese has just begun to melt. Unwrap the top of the foil and cook for 10-15 minutes more until the buns are golden and the cheese is oozing.

Serve warm with extra salsa on the side. Have your guests pull them apart and enjoy!

Notes

Watch how these pull apart sliders were made here.

• James was having fun in this video with the cheese pull and added 8 slices. It was not necessary, 6 is plenty!
• To keep the buns from sticking to the foil, brush the bottom of the foil with a little oil.
• During the cooking in foil process, turn the tray at least once to promote even cooking.
