Sainsbury’s Taste The Difference British Pork & Caramelised Red Onion Sausage

Jan 29th, 2010 | By Sausage King | Category: News, Pictures, Reviews

The people behind Rate My Sausage are now looking at supermarket sausages. What an excellent idea. Visiting your local butcher might not always be practical so it’s excellent to know what else is on offer. In this review they look at Sainsbury’s Taste The Difference range and try the pork and caramelised red onion sausages.

Jan 27th, 2010 | By Sausage King | Category: News, Pictures, Reviews

Another excellent review by the people behind Rate My Sausage. Please get in touch in the normal way if you think I should be making a visit to Giffen’s in Kings Lynn on my Sausage King Adventures!

Giffen‘s is a small butchery, which can be found only fifty metres from the previously reported Bowers‘, on Gaywood Road in King‘s Lynn.



Bower’s Traditional Norfolk Pork Sausage

Jan 25th, 2010 | By Sausage King | Category: News, Pictures, Reviews

A sausage fan in Kings Lynn has been out and about rating the best sausages for his blog. Read what he thought of local butcher Bowers below. He clearly enjoyed sampling some of Norfolk’s finest. Maybe I should make Bowers a destination for The Sausage King Adventures?

Bowers’ is a small traditional butcher shop, which can be found on Gaywood Road in King’s Lynn, close to the famous Gaywood clock tower. You will always be afforded a warm welcome here, and the smell of the shop will tickle your tastebuds before you’ve even bought your meat.



Hunt the sausage

Jan 22nd, 2010 | By Sausage King | Category: News

There are now a variety of sausage websites on the internet and I am always delighted when a really good one pops up. “Rate my sausage” looks like it might just be one of those sites.

Not only are they locally based to me in Norfolk but they are hunting for great sausages just like I am. They have also kindly offered to share their findings with The Sausage King and Sausagefans.com websites!



R J Hirst - Best Producer for 2010

Jan 11th, 2010 | By Sausage King | Category: News

Regular readers of this website may remember that one of my first Sausage King Adventures was to R J Hirst in Lincolnshire. To say I was blown away by the quality of everything they have on offer in their shop is an understatement.

Their sausages are really amazing as is everything else they sell. People were coming in all day to stock up on sausages and having tasted them I can see why.
