How about a red-eye gravy-inspired type of thing? Ham fat, black boiled coffee, and chili flakes?

Or a chipotle and cocoa powder theme with lots of garlic and port

Or, honey, dried mustard, and lemon juice?

These would be pork and/or duck in my mind's palate.

Black boiled coffee

Interesting..... Can you explain a bit more.... Use the coffee as i would port,wine etc?

Was thinking about this combo making with turkey.... doing a take on Mole... adding some ground almonds to help bind it.

I think we're on the same page. Take some brewed coffee of the volume you would add to moisten the amount of sausage you're thinking of making. Preferably, the coffee should be strong, and day-old or so. Toss it in a saucepan and heat it to boiling so it's really scary-tasting. Then, let cool and add to your sausage mixture.

Even better is if the coffee is reduced by about 1/4 to the volume you're thinking of using (i.e. 400 ml to 300 ml)

If you have more questions, we might want to try to bring Varmint into the discussion.... he's a red-eye gravy guru from my understanding.

Bacon. Seriously.

Dark meat, sour cherries, mustard, and bacon.

But, how did I know it would be Al who would make that suggestion? :cool:

Thanks for all the great suggestions.... Keep them coming!

Lamb sausage. Use North African spices, maybe cumin, coriander, caraway add some pine nuts and fruit (prunes or dates). Lots of garlic of course, maybe some herbs such as thyme or cilantro.

Already doing a Merguez, Lamb, harissa, paprika, garlic, cumin & corriander (cilantro)

Lamb, Pinenuts, Dates, cumin, corriander..... sounding good!

Sumac is great in Merguez. Adds a lemony tartness.
