Sausage Rolls - America been missing out apparently (2 Viewers)

[The Military Workshop]

First the flat white coffee and now this ! What kind of country are you guys living in{sm4}

This is pretty much equal to eating a hot dog as a snack. I can understand Americans not going for vegemite (marmite for me ^&grin) but surely it cant be true that you have little concept of sausage rolls. Sammy say it aint so !

From the Daily Mail.


'Is it a rolled sausage?' Americans are introduced to sausage rolls and immediately lose their minds
The New York Times recently ran a recipe for the humble sausage roll
They claimed it was a traditional British dish served on Boxing Day
Americans were confused by the recipe, unsure of what it was
Australians and British fans of the dish were shocked at the confusion
Many debated how it should be served and on what occasion

Sorry, but we've had sausage rolls at least as long as there have been Italian immigrants to this country. My one grandfather used to go to Malone's Bakery in Allentown, where they sold fresh dough for people to take home and bake. He used it to wrap sausages, and bake them in the oven.

Heck, if you're not inclined to use bread dough, you use Pillsbury crescent roll dough. Pigs in a blanket.

So just because people reading the Times didn't know what it was, that's no indication of the rest of the country, or even the rest of the people in New York, for that matter.

Prost!

I agree with Brad, I have been getting Sausage Rolls from Delallo in Pittsburgh for many moons!

You really call that a "sausage roll" over there in Tom's River? That's just a sausage sandwich everywhere else. Add some peppers and tomato sauce for sausage and peppers, numm, numm, numm, numm, numm!

Prost!

Never heard of sausage rolls, much less tasted one, but the pics in the link look good! May have to give them a try. Pigs in the blanket are not the same thing. We make those several times a yr. Personally been trying to educate the locals here as to the culinary delight of "scrapple." My wife makes that for breakfast and my favorite. Chris

Blast from the past. Grew up on scrapple and grits for breakfast. Haven't had scrapple since my mom passed decades ago, but I still eat grits on a regular basis. My mom was from Mobile, Ala. and she brought that southern food to Maryland with her. :wink2:^&grin -- Al

that's the country boy in you Al...

Ya'll got that right, Michael. There is only one acceptable way to eat grits for a Southerner, that's with butter and pepper. Any thing else is an abomination.:wink2:^&grin -- Al

Al...

I have seen people eat them with sugar...cheese...diced fruit...diced onions...syrup...

to each his own...

but I'm like you...

lots of pepper and butter...

sometimes I work them into my eggs...

especially if they are over easy...

and truth be told...

I use instant grits...

every time I think of grits...

I think of Joe Pesci in "My Cousin Vinnie"...

he was hysterically hilarious in this show...

What is a grit?^&grin
Michael, my mom never used the instant stuff, always boiled them the old fashioned way. I have always used the instant ones myself. Never developed the knack like my mom had. The worst thing I have seen added to grits is milk. Defeats the purpose. Nothing like a hot bowl of grits on a cold morning. Who needs coffee when you have grits?:wink2: -- Al

That pic is NOT a sausage roll - it's a Hot Dog! That is a sausage - put inside a bread roll!

A sausage roll - is a sausage, rolled up in dough - and then cooked in an oven.

By the way - what is all the talk about "grits" ? - and what has this to do with sausage rolls?????

Grit is what we spread on the roads in winter - to help vehicles stay on the road.

Who was it that said that America and GB were nations divided only by a common language??? jb
