I can't believe this has passed by TEFers attention but what's your favourite?

I'm a man of simple tastes and like mine in a Toad in the Hole - don't mind what flavour

There is a modern day tendency to add too many flavours to sausages, and prefer mine quite simple.

They must have a high meat content though - can't stand bangers or "Irish Style".

Don't seem to get a beef sausage these days  Sad
I like a good meaty pork sausage, preferably as part of a fry up or with onion gravy and mash.

Bavarian Weisswurst.

I do like a nice cumberland mind. Or even a pork and apple.

Where do people stand on stuff like MRM in sausages? I kind of see it as a logical conclusion to the old 'everything that you wouldn't normally eat on an animal goes in here' concept that a sausage is.

Lethal Lucifers Scotch Bonnet Sossies from Simply Sausages are the best.

Having lived in Luxembourg I have to say I can't stand the German style sausage. Think they definitely spelled worst wrong there.

A good old English/Irish banger is kind. I am not averse to flavoured sausages either, pork and leek or whatever.

The Scottish square sausage is absolutely world class in a roll.

Having lived in Ireland for 10 years I've got to say the quality of their fresh meat products of any description is absolutely first class.

Always used the same butcher in Tralee, Terry's Butchers, and they always had fantastic stuff for  sale including their own recipe Pork, Apple a d Guinness sausages!

Brands like Richmond - you wouldn'y know there was any meat in them.

I am sure there are some lovely authentic Irish Sausages, but the ones in the supermarkets here are crap.

Can I second this. My future in-laws are from Mayo and the standard of sausage, black pudding etc is immense. Most of the towns in Ireland still have the traditional butcher, sad that in England the supermarket tends to swallow up the independent butchers.
