Ingredients

2 cup apple juice
6 firm, ripe stone fruit, such as peaches, nectarines or plums, halved
6 large mild house-made sausages
oil for brushing grill grates
2 tablespoon pure maple syrup

Directions

Place apple juice in a medium saucepan with fruit. Add just enough cold water to cover fruit. Place over high heat and bring just to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer until fruit just becomes tender, 1 to 3 minutes depending on the ripeness of the fruit. Remove fruit with a slotted spoon and place in a large lidded container.
Place sausages in the fruit-poaching liquid. Return to high heat and bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer until barely cooked through, about 7 to 8 minutes. Remove sausages with a slotted spoon and place in the container with fruit. Let cool completely, cover and refrigerate.
When ready to cook, brush the grill with oil and prepare for medium-heat cooking. Grill sausages until browned and heated through, 6 to 8 minutes. Brush fruit with maple syrup and grill until soft and browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Cut fruit into pieces and serve with sausages.
