Sausage Alfredo?

My girlfriend has been asking me to make an alfredo sauce with italian sausage in it; something we have never tried before. I was just wondering if anyone else has tried that before, and if so how did it turn out?

In my mind's eye I can see this turn out badly, so I was wondering if anyone else had any experience making the sausage alfredo.

I wouldn't actually make the sauce with sausage in it; I'd crumble sausage and cook it separately, drain off the fat, then mix the cooked meat with the sauced pasta. As long as you use good sausage, it will taste fine, and a little sausage will go a long way if you crumble it into small bits -- but the dish will be superrich! in any case :lips:

Maybe just grill it and slice it.

i think

before you make your sauce, cook and render the fat from the sausage. use the fat to make the roux tho thicken the sauce. Then combined the pasta, sauce and sausage.

I would always do as Suzanne has stated, but I wouldnt mind trying what kuan said, to grill the sausage over some hickory chips or something, and slice it, and fan over the top of the alfredo... mmmmmmmmmmm ALFREDO!:chef:
