Ah! The Cumberland Ring! I've discovered this quite recently at my local Morrisons. Very morerish!

I think is actual picture was of some South African equivalent - a Boerwurst, possibly?

Seems to work OK for me.
I prick the sausages I cook on the BBQ. If I don't, they split when cooking...
:think:
The pricking lets some fat ooze out (also a plus, to my mind), the pressure inside doesn't build up, and the sausage doesn't either split or explode at both ends...

I'm talking about the fat pork sausages I get from my local butcher, which are the only kind I eat...
Ah OK, yeah they do indeed need pricking. Not the beef ones though.

Maybe. But the Cumberland Ring is still yummy - and you don't have to prick it!

How uncivilised.

I like the look of those yellow and red sausages. They look delicious.

Dutch sausages - they don't need to be pricked, and their fats are proteins. Also, Dutch potatoes grow pre-peeled and cabbage is pre-shredded and tastes like bacon.

Stop exaggerating the qualities of American sausages. They are not wrapped in pasteurized processed intestines at all. The casings are made of collagen, cellulose or plastic, and the filling consists of sawdust and floor sweepings. The only time you get any nutritional value out of them is when a cockroach or a rat drops into the 24m³ bowl that is repurposed from a superannuated cement mixing truck.
....if we're looky!

That's what I've been joking about -- http://rationalia.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... n#p1714316 According to Dutchy, the fats in English sausage are the only proteins in it.
