Favourite sausages

I still mourn the loss of our local specialist pork butcher. Amazing taste, very meaty, didn’t shrink at all when cooking.
Unfortunately the butcher’s wife found him putting his own personal sausage in to another lady. The wife owned the business.

6 pints and 6 sausages. Sounds like a fine evening.

thankfully only half pints as the last one was 13%.

Sausages are great, but that stout sounds really interesting. Years ago I visited Thornbridge and wrote an article about them for an Australian beer magazine (the head brewer that set up their facility was an Aussie). I got a little box of treats to take home including a chestnut strong ale that they were selling for 30 quid a bottle in the shop!

Of course we shouldn’t forget the fabulous sausages of Royston Vasey

Our local butcher does a fine range of sausages.
But a couple of his worth note are his Lorne sausage with haggis and his Moroccan sausage, which when served in pitta bread with salad and sauces tastes just like the Doner kebab you always hope for, but without the hangover.
