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.

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.



The Sausage Shed - Somerset

Nov 24th, 2009 | By Sausage King | Category: News, Reviews

Earlier in the year I promised a review of some sausages from the Sausage Shed in Somerset.

These turned out to be some of the finest sausages I have ever tasted.

We tried Cracked Black Pepper, Pork and Marmalade and Pork with Burrow Hill Cider and Mustard and to say I was impressed is an understatement.



Braughing sausages

Nov 20th, 2009 | By Sausage King | Category: News, Reviews

The village butchers - D. White Butchers - first made the Braughing Sausage in 1954.

Local residents, Douglas White and his wife Anna, were soon producing around 800 sausages each week. They now sell about 30,000 a week and I can see why.

The Braughing sausage, seeped as it is in history, is a modern classic. A good balance of ingredients, with good quality pork and a good fill resulting in a really morish and tasty sausage. A hint of spice complimented the pork without overpowering it. Although we had this for breakfast they would have been perfect for lunch or dinner.
