Badazz Barbecued Boozy British Bangers Recipes

BANGERS

Steps:

• Cut pork and veal into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
• Rinse salt off fatback thoroughly, then soak in warm water for 20 minutes. Remove.
• Toss pork, veal, fatback, sage, garlic powder, salt, lemon zest, thyme, onion powder, mace, nutmeg, and pepper together very well and cover. Set in a refrigerator overnight for 12 hours.
• Pass all meat through a meat grinder. Lightly knead a couple of times, but everything should be close to blended evenly already. Cover and return to the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, thoroughly rinse out casings, passing water through the interior. Let soak in warm water for 30 minutes.
• Knot one end of casing and slide the other end over a sausage stuffing attachment on your stand mixer. Feed cold ground meat into casing on medium-low speed. If it gets too warm it is a pain to feed into the casings.
• Twist into links of desired size as casing fills. Tie off other end after final link.
• Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pan-fry sausages until browned and no longer pink in the centers, turning as needed, 10 to 15 minutes.

TRADITIONAL BRITISH BANGERS

Steps:

• Knead together the pork, veal, fat, and bread.
• Stir the salt, pepper, cayenne, nutmeg, mace, thyme, marjoram, sage, onion powder and lemon peel into the egg, and then knead into the meat mixture.
• CHEF'S NOTE: At this point, I fry a small sausage patty and taste it so that I can adjust the seasonings, because the recipe so far is fairly mild.
• Firmly stuff the mixture into the prepared hog (sausage) casings.
• Prick any air pockets with a pin.
• Poach, broil, grill, or fry them before serving.
• Serve the bangers, drowned in nice thick onion and mushroom gravy, with a heap of mashed potatoes.
• The raw sausages can be refrigerated for 3 days, cooked sausages for 1 week.
• They can also be frozen (raw, poached, or broiled) for 3 months.

BADAZZ BARBECUE SAUCE

Steps:

• In a saucepan, sauté the onion and garlic in the butter.
• When the onions are transparent, add everything else.
• Bring to a boil and then simmer for about 15 minutes OR until you can't stand the amazing aroma!
• Store refrigerated.

BODACIOUS BRITISH BANGERS AND BAKED BEANS BRUNCH!

Steps:

• Take a large griddle, skillet or frying pan and spray with cooking oil.
• Cut each slice of bread into 3 fingers.
• Heat the griddle/skillet/frying pan over a high heat and then as soon as it is hot, turn the heat down to low to medium. (Check by putting a teaspoon of water on the griddle, if it spits and dances over the surface, the griddle is hot.).
• Place your sausages at one end and then your tomatoes at the other end. Keep turning your sausages regularly until they are evenly browned, then leave them to cook for 3 to 5 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of them.
• After 5 minutes, carefully turn your tomatoes over to cook on the other side and then add your fingers of bread to gently fry, spraying with more oil if needed. Turn then after a few minutes.
• Heat your beans in a small saucepan over a low heat.
• Push your tomatoes, bread and sausages to one side to keep warm, and spray the griddle with more cooking oil if needed. Gently break your eggs on to the griddle and cook to personal requirements.
• Arrange the bread fingers on a warm plate and then top with three halves of tomatoes. Then add three sausages to the plate and the beans - place the fried egg/s on to the plate and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve hot with a pot of tea, orange juice and toast if required.
• Worcestershire sauce or HP sauce is also great with this!

BONFIRE BANGERS & BEANS

Steps:

• Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large flameproof casserole. Add the onion, celery and bacon, then cook for 5-10 mins until softened. Turn up the heat and add the tomato purée. Cook for 2 mins, then add the chopped tomatoes, sugar, mustard, thyme, Worcestershire sauce and 200ml water, then bring to the boil. Cook, uncovered, over a low heat for 15 mins. Add the beans and peppers, then simmer for 15 mins more, topping up with a little boiling water if needed.
• Meanwhile, heat oven to 190C/170C fan/ gas 5. Toss the sausages with remaining 1 tbsp oil and spread out on a baking tray. Cook for 30 mins until browned all over, turning occasionally. Nestle the sausages among the beans, then cover and place the pan in the oven. Cook for 30 mins more. Remove from the oven, sprinkle over the parsley, if using, and serve with the baked potatoes (see 'Goes well with'). Can be made up to 2 days in advance and reheated in a low oven or on the hob.
