Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your grill to a medium-high temperature (about 400°F). Set it up for indirect cooking by turning on one side while leaving the other side off.
  2. Make the lemon basil aioli by combining mayonnaise, fresh basil, minced garlic, lemon zest, kosher salt, and black pepper in a food processor. Blend until smooth.
  3. Grill the Italian sausage links on the cooler side for 4-5 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 150°F.
  4. Transfer sausages to the direct heat side of the grill and grill for 2-3 minutes per side until they reach 160°F.
  5. Lightly spray brioche rolls with nonstick cooking spray and toast them on the grill for about 1 minute until golden brown.
  6. Assemble the sandwiches by placing a grilled sausage in each toasted roll, topping with giardiniera relish, and drizzling with lemon basil aioli.
