Half-Metre Sausage Platter

A "half meter of sausages" is an indulgent, hearty meal that’s perfect for gatherings, barbecues, or casual dinners. Whether served as part of a larger spread or as the main event, sausages offer a satisfying combination of savory flavors and satisfying textures. Grilled, pan-fried, or roasted, the sausages are juicy, flavorful, and pair wonderfully with a range of sides like sauerkraut, mustard, or roasted vegetables.

Method
  1. Mince 200g of meat and 200g of salo.
  2. Chop the rest of meat and salo in small pieces (it would be easier if you previously freeze the products a bit).
  3. Mix all the products with ground garlic, ground pepper and salt.
  4. You can also add white wine.
  5. Fill previously prepared casings with forcemeat, tie from both sides and put into a cold place for 5-6 hours, until forcemeat is well salted and well marinaded.
  6. Then pierce sausages in several points with a fork to avoid bursting, and fry with salo and onion.
  7. Cook in oven until prepared.
