Which country produces the best sausages?

[Gandalf]

I would argue that though the UK is an abortion of a country these days, they have throughout history through to the present produced the best sausages in the world.

So, my topic of the day is which country produces the best sausages?

I would throw a wide variety of food items into the mix, but at the moment I have sausages on the brain. I love a good sausage, though only the mashed up animal kind. Obviously.

That's another great thing regarding the sausage. It does bear a certain similarity with the shape of a penis. Now a rasher of bacon is fantastic, but you very rarely see bacon in phallic form. Indeed, this is quite possibly another virtue of the sausage.

I had 6 of them for my lunch as I am too lazy to cook anything else and I have to say that they were fantastic. A perfect blend of pork and herbs and wrapped in that lovely crispy casing. Sausages were made for the George Foreman grill and in turn my belly.

Now I have tried other types of sausage, but they have never matched up to the finer British sausages. German ones are edible, but I don't really understand their popularity. Hot dog sausages are just the worst, they are dried out and taste like rubber. Pretty inedible without a good lacing of ketchup. The sausages I have tried from the supermarkets here are quite awful and send a shiver up my spine.

In conclusion, I have to say that my Scottish butcher up in Seoul is a saint upon this dear earth and I shall continue to consume his sausages with eternal pride. The sausages are quite well known and he even caters to the embassy on their gatherings. They are far too expensive, but that's the price you pay for living a life of obscurity. One must pay for the finer things in life and good sausages are mighty fine. Take your smart phones and shove them because I prefer sausages.

I hope others will post with the same kind of passion that this topic instills within me.

Miles mad for sausage.........Im stunned

Hotdog sausages are alright but its got to be a big un, in a sub, with lashings of onion, french's mustard and ketchup.

I like going to the farmers markets and picking up sausages. All the flavours you can think of and not made out of face, arsehole or toenails.

Uk, Yorkshire. Fact

My old man is a sausage connoisseur of 71 years and drives 30-40 miles to his favourite butcher in Northallerton for his sausages (and pork pies). I drive to my old mans and get them off him - much easier.

I have never had decent sausage abroad - fact. The worst was South Africa. Utter shite, and Finland a close second - pathetic.

And Lincolnshire sausage is awful - another fact

Are we talking pork sausages or beef sausages?

Which butcher is it, Northallerton is only down the road from me?

Best I have had was when I went to visit my ex's partners parents in Beaminster, the local butcher produced this sausage called funnily enough the Beaminster Banger, had all sorts in it, paprika, mustard herbs and spices, very tasty banger that I have yet to find a better one!

Had some good one's in Spain they love thier sausages over there, really good chorizo style one's with plenty of kick!
