BIG BLEND RADIO “SAUSAGE DAY” & “SAUSAGE MONTH” CELEBRATION!
In honor of October 1st being National Sausage Day and October is National Sausage Month, we hosted a special Big Blend Radio Party in honor of this popular meat treat that’s savored around the world.
Sausage is typically made from a selection of ground meats (usually pork, beef, poultry) that are mixed with various spices and seasonings, and sometimes breadcrumbs or rice for extra filler, and then stuffed into a casing or made into patties. However, by using vegetable proteins, sausage can also be made into vegetarian or vegan links and patties. The sky is the limit on what can be made into a sausage, so let your imagination run wild in the kitchen! Check out our recipes and sausage tips below and take a listen to our 2-part Big Blend Radio Sausage Party podcasts to get times on buying, cooking, and serving sausage, what drinks and side items to pair with sausage, favorite sausage dining spots, and to hear about the various types of sausage across the country and around the world. Of course, there’s always some music, fun, and games involved in a party, so enjoy the humor of it all too!
