Prepare the Sausage Mixture:
- In a skillet over medium-high heat, brown the sausage in small pieces together with the finely chopped onion. If you’re using dry red wine, add it at this stage.
- Cook until the sausage is completely browned and cooked through.
- Remove the sausage and onion mixture from the pan using a slotted spoon and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain. Ensure it’s well-drained. For extra leanness, you can rinse the sausage mixture with hot water using a colander.
-
Combine Filling Ingredients:
- Once cooled and drained, place the sausage and onion mixture in a large bowl.
- Add the beaten eggs, chopped fresh basil, ground allspice, garlic powder, ground sage, salt, black pepper, shredded mozzarella cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, and Tabasco sauce (if using).
- Mix all the ingredients thoroughly to create a well-combined filling.
-
Prepare the Dough:
- On a lightly floured surface, set out one pound of pizza dough. Sprinkle the top of the dough lightly with flour to prevent sticking.
- Roll out the dough into a rectangle approximately 10×12 inches in size and about 1/2-inch thick.
-
Assemble the Rolls:
- Leaving a 1 1/2-inch border on the sides of the rectangle, spread half of the sausage mixture evenly over the dough.
- Fold in the border of the dough to encase the filling slightly and start rolling the dough from a narrow end, jelly-roll style, until you have a tight roll.
- Repeat the process with the remaining dough and filling to make the second sausage roll.
-
Bake the Rolls:
- Place both rolls seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the rolls are crusty and golden brown.
-
Cool and Serve:
- Once baked, let the rolls cool for about five minutes on a wire rack.
- Serve warm on a cutting board with a knife for cutting, alongside an assortment of good mustards for dipping.

Tips and Variations
- Vegetarian Option: Replace the sausage with a mixture of sautéed mushrooms, spinach, and feta cheese for a delightful vegetarian twist.
- Spicy Variation: Add a finely chopped jalapeño or a dash of cayenne pepper to the filling for an extra kick of heat.
- Cheese Choices: Feel free to experiment with different cheeses like cheddar or gouda for a unique flavor profile.
- Serving Ideas: These rolls pair wonderfully with a fresh green salad, tomato soup, or even a tangy coleslaw.
Storage and Reheating
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheating: Reheat in a 350°F (175°C) oven for about 10-15 minutes until warmed through. Avoid microwaving to keep the crust crisp.
Additional Notes
- Onions: Finely chopping the onions ensures they cook quickly and evenly with the sausage.
- Draining Sausage: Properly draining the sausage helps prevent the rolls from becoming soggy and ensures a crispier crust.
- Pizza Dough: You can use store-bought pizza dough or make your own. If using homemade, make sure to allow enough time for the dough to rise if needed.
