Preheat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat.
Add the sausages to the pan and cook for 10-12 minutes, rotating occasionally, until fully cooked and browned on all sides. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest.
While the sausages cook, peel and thinly slice the onion.
In a second skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat.
Add the sliced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10-15 minutes until soft and caramelized. Season with a small pinch of salt and pepper, then remove from heat.
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, honey, and a pinch of black pepper to create the mustard aioli. Set aside.
Lightly butter the slices of artisan bread on one side, then toast them in a clean skillet over medium heat until golden brown and slightly crisp.
To assemble, spread a generous amount of mustard aioli on the toasted side of each bread slice.
Place a sausage on each sandwich, followed by a layer of caramelized onions and a handful of fresh arugula.
Top with another slice of bread and serve immediately, enjoying the posh twist on a classic sausage sandwich.
