Irish bangers

[MaryIsobel]

When my daughter went to uni in Galway, Ireland, she developed an obsession with bangers. She has tried what claim to be bangers here but said they just taste like giant breakfast sausages. I happened to see on a local reddit page that a butcher I frequent sells them and apparently they are the real deal. I'd like to surprise her with them for Christmas breakfast. We don't normally eat sausages and the few times we have, it is just the breakfast link type so I googled how to cook bangers. A lot of recipes, including Martha Stewart's call from browning them for a couple of minutes and then adding chicken stock, peppercorns and garlic and simmering them for about 10 minutes. Am I on the right track?

I always brown in a skillet or roast in the oven. I've never simmered in stock, but I'm also not Irish.

We always pan fry? Our local Chippy's stocks them from Jolly Posh in CHI, all variations.

Pan fry to brown.  Add liquid of your choice and simmer until 165F.  Do not over cook and don’t prick the skin which means moderate heat when browning.

Thanks everyone. I know my daughter will be delighted.

Boiled sausages

Are the worst.

In your stomach

They do burst.

 

Fried sausages

Are the best.

In your stomach

They do rest.

 

Everybody knows dat!

Well, everyone except me apparently! As I mentioned we don't eat a lot of sausages, mainly because I don't care for them and I'm the cook! I like the flavour of some but I just find them too rich. Is that a poem that you memorized in school or are you a poet?

Ha! I learned it from an uncle almost 70 years ago. He was Irish! Where he got it, I don't know.
