Sausedge

Sausedge

These little beef sausages are simple and tasty and are perfect for grilling out or as a quick snack. Serve with mustard.


Country: England Century: Early 17th

Grind beef and suet and mix together until uniform. Add the remaining ingredients and enough water to make the meat easy to stuff into your sausage casing. Cook in whatever manner you wish.

*Liquid smoke is added to supplement the smoke flavor lost due to not being able to easily/readily smoke sausage.
