How long do you grill Italian sausage?
Grill fresh Italian sausage 12 to 16 minutes over medium direct heat (about 350–400°F), turning every 3 to 4 minutes, until the centre reads 160°F. On a two-zone fire, cook 10 to 12 minutes on the cool side, then finish 2 to 3 minutes over the flame for colour.
