Making Our Own Sausages

May 1st, 2008 Fee

I’ve just returned from our local butcher, who I went to see to ask if he had any sausage casings. I got a big bundle of them from him, and a bag of rusk thrown in for nowt. What a nice man. It’s George Arthur Butchers in Lightwater, if you’re interested (I would link to his site, but it keeps crashing on me, so don’t want to do the same to you!).

I’ve taken a big portion of the hog casing off and have it soaking in water until tomorrow, and the pork is out of the freezer.

Our Dexter beef arrives from Rosewood Farms tomorrow, so it’s going to be one hell of a BBQ! I’m thinking slabs of beef, or perhaps homemade steakburgers and our own sausages, some homemade bread rolls, perhaps a bit of coldslaw and some rocket and watercress from the garden!
