Vienna sausages (36? per can)

Does anybody have a good recipe for using them? (they are kind of
bland) Maybe mashed into an ersatz pat?, or skewered in Shish Kabobs?

They work pretty well for giving a dog a pill...

Vienna Sausage Confit:

Thoroughly drain the liquid from the cans and re-cover them with hot
duck fat. Tap down the cans to allow fat to settle to bottom. Allow
to cool to room temperature. If the sausages are not covered
completely after they cool, add more liquid duck fat.

Cover cans with 3 layers of cheesecloth and put them in a cool 45-55F,
65% relative humidity cellar 3-4 months to age. You may also use a
wine or kimchi refrigerator.

To serve, simply warm them in a hot water bath until you can remove
them, then hit them with a blow torch to brown them lightly and
caramelize some of the surface sugars. Serve with a mixture of grape
jelly and Heinz Chilli Sauce and a box of toothpicks.

That sounds almost as good as Nigella's Valentine Date Rape Steak:

Undercooked green beans, burnt skin baked potatoes, and a steak f-ed
up by her nasty "sauce."

Me too. Sometimes I feel fancy; cut each in thirds and arrange on a
paper plate with spam cubes and enjoy with a toothpic... good dipped
in garlicky black bean sauce.

I buy the cheeee ends from the deli, typically half price. I like to
cut the American cheese ends into cubes and dip those in garlicky
black bean sauce too... I guess dairy and black bean sauce is a food
oxymoron. I cube mozz and dip that in black bean sauce too.


I can't tolerate turkey spam. I don't like any poultry sausage. Even
vienna sausage I only like the beef or pork ones.

I have lots more strange junk food habits... you would like what I can
do with a pickle. LOL

Two or three heated links, nestled in an hotdog bun or, even better, a
toasted.grilled New England lobster roll, dressed as you like. I prefer my
hotdogs with mustard and sweet pickle relish; though the occasional chili
dog is also good.

(sliced and fried) but it has to be the original kind, not Spam Lite
or turkey Spam :-P

Pan fry course diced Spam till edges crispy. Scramble some eggs w/

whatever else you like. Wrap in flour tortillas and add fave salsa.
Killer.

That either. I can't think of any better example of "TIAD".

I haven't seen beef or pork Vienna sausages for at least 15 years.
Can you post a link to these pork or beef Vienna sausages? All of the
ones in the stores I frequent have chicken paste as their main
ingredient.

I don't hate to break it to you, but you've been eating chicken-based
Vienna sausages for years, Sheldon.

From the site: "If you go to the grocery store you can find them

$1.50? Nobody in their right mind would pay that much. I think
they're $.38 at my grocery store last I checked.

And the potted meat beats the hell out of Vienna sausages for the same
price. They have more salt and fat.

LOL! Don loves them as an occasional fast item. He doesnt do spam but will
have them right from the can as is, or with a little added tobasco.

I get him a can every 2-3 months.

Maybe they taste just like the Shelden gold star Hillsure sausage like
products that he likes so much?

I agree about price; at Big Lots they can often be had for about 25 cents
per can. Some canned foods vary widely in price; the same brand of
sardines, packed in mustard, can run between 79 cents and $1.50 in the
community where I shop.

As a pre-teen, my favorite lunches were potted meat on Bunny Bread (think
soft, like Wonder) with bread-and-butter pickles and a bag of Ruffles Potato
Chips.
