Quick answer
What is the best pan for sausage and peppers?
A 12-inch cast-iron skillet is the classic pick: it holds heat, browns sausage deeply and goes from stove to oven. Stainless steel browns just as well and deglazes easily. Nonstick is easiest to clean but browns less. For crowds, use rimmed sheet pans; for saucy versions, a Dutch oven.
