A bit late to this, but I love sausages and had to say something!

My favourite is the 'Toulouse style' with garlic, red wine and herbs in it - lovely in a stew with vegetables and lentils or beans.

We've been moaning about the sausages available for so many years that we started making our own this year, from recipes in 'The Sausage Book'. The Great British Banger - with sage, thyme and mace - was delicious. We get the pork minced by the butcher, which makes it easier. They were unclear on the meat to fat ratio and just said they use shoulder, cut the skin off and mince that. It works very well. Must make more of them!

My local farm shop do an amazing pork and black pudding. I've been know to say sod it and cook all 10 in the pack in one go, ALL MINE!

I never say no to a good Cumberland either.

peachstone = that's how people over here got started.
Kept written records of the recipes. Told no one.
Got a little bigger every year. Told no one.
No visible problems with BIG FOOD trying to kill them off. Not so far.
There are two that top the rest for me:
#1 whiskey elk.
#2 venison Farmer.

Cumberland sausages from Brennan's Butchers in Kendal - sadly no longer there.They'd been going for years, in fact they were my Grandads favourite. Never tasted a better Cumberland sausage and not for want of trying - served with hot Cumberland sauce.

Have to declare an interest: My son makes his own sausages from locally sourced pork and sells them fresh cooked from his Sussex Sausage Company outfit at fairs and festivals in the Hastings area.

I have to say they are delicious, as is the rest of his home-made healthy food: but I would say that, wouldn't I?
