State of the Game

I went to my local butchers the other day and asked what sausages they had in. They always have a good selection. One was 'pork and bacon'. After I'd finished laughing I bought some. They where flipping fantastic. The last time I tried to get some they'd sold out.

I knew a fellow who had worked at a pork pie factory. He would never touch one although admitted that they do taste great.
I make my own pork sausages (bavarian and thuringian style, 2 states of germany which have awesome pork sausages). But I had to find a veterinary able to check it properly, because as a german by birth I want to eat raw pork as well. So now I create my own sausages with raw pork, which are then smoked for 10 days (at my local butcher's). And finally I have german sausages in Australia - it's like with bread, if I want good german style bread, I have to do it myself. it always baffles me how the rest of the world can live without good bread - but they do - I couldn't live without german style bread.

"pork and bacon" makes a lot of sense -a good pork sausage has like 25% bacon in it, fat is the carrier of most flavors and makes the sausages really great. And of course the seasoning is very important as well. If you want to make own sausages you need a good filling device, that you can squeeze the meat paste into cleaned intestines quickly. It took me some time to get to my own sausages, but now I don't want to go back - there is nothing better than sausages which are exactly like you want them.

It's like sausages that way. Taste may be great but do you want to know how they are made?

:D S
I used to live in Worcester and a friend had a house about half a mile away from the Worcester sauce factory - from memory I think it was Wednesdays were obviously anchovy boiling day, and the whole area used to smell of boiling anchovies.... 🤢
Few drops give a stew a nice middle though....
