Ingredients
  • 10 uncooked hot or sweet Italian sausage links (about 2 1/2 pounds total)
  • 2 14 1/2ounce cans fire-roasted diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 28 ounce can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon  balsamic vinegar
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons  dried basil, crushed
  • 1 teaspoon  dried oregano, crushed
  • 1/2 teaspoon  salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon  crushed red pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon  ground black pepper
  • 10 French-style rolls or hoagie buns, split
  • 10 slices provolone cheese, halved
  • 3/4 cup  roasted red sweet peppers, drained and cut into thin strips
