Homemade Vegetarian Smoky Breakfast Sausage Links image

I haven't tried this, but it looks so good! Adapted from Vegetarian Times magazine! These sausages were a hit among Vegetarian Times vegan staffers, who loved the idea of homemade veggie links. They are a snap to make in a 2-layer bamboo steamer, but you may use a metal steamer in a large saucepan, you may just have to do several batches.

LINGUICA (SMOKED PORTUGUESE SAUSAGE)



Linguica (Smoked Portuguese Sausage) image

A sweet, smoked Portuguese sausage.

Provided by Brian Genest

Time 12h30m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 20

½ pound Pork, fresh, backfat, raw
1 tablespoon olive oil
7 cloves garlic, minced
1 (4 pound) pork butt, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 cup red table wine
1 cup sweet paprika
⅓ cup powdered milk
3 tablespoons cider vinegar
3 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 tablespoon hickory-flavored liquid smoke
2 tablespoons dried marjoram
2 tablespoons ground white pepper
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 pinch cayenne pepper
4 feet hog casing
lump charcoal
hickory wood chunks
toothpicks

Steps:

  • Rinse fatback thoroughly and soak in warm water for 30 minutes. Remove and chop into small pieces.
  • Pour olive oil in a small pan and saute garlic for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Do not let it brown. Remove from pan and put into a large bowl. Add fatback, pork butt, wine, paprika, milk, vinegar, salt, sugar, liquid smoke, marjoram, white pepper, black pepper, and red pepper and mix until everything is well combined. Cover and refrigerate for 8 hours, or overnight.
  • Test the sausage flavor by frying a small bit of it in a pan and tasting it. Adjust spices if needed and place back in the refrigerator, covered, for 2 more hours.
  • Run water through hog casings and rinse out as well as possible. Soak in warm water for 30 minutes.
  • Set up sausage stuffing attachment on KitchenAid®. Squeeze out water from a length of casing. Tie one end in a knot, then roll onto sausage making fitting like a condom. Turn KitchenAid® onto medium speed. Feed cold sausage mixture a little at a time into the funnel. Use one hand to keep casing tight and one to feed meat mixture. Twist off links as you get to desired length. Repeat with remaining hog casings and sausage mixture.
  • Add several handfuls of hot coal into a smoker to get a base temperature going, then let the temperature die down to about 140 degrees F 60 degrees C). You need a cold smoke to smoke the sausages so it doesn't cook and the skin doesn't get browned.
  • When smoker has the right temperature, add hickory wood chunks. The temperature will spike again, so let it cool back down to 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).
  • Using toothpicks, hang sausages in the smoker as far away from the direct heat source as possible. Maintain temperature at 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) as best as possible. It's difficult - don't sweat it if you get spikes. Just open the smoker door and let heat escape accordingly.
  • Smoke until links are deep red and skin is starting to firm, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Remove from smoker and let rest for 30 minutes. Cook like any other sausage before, either pan-fry or grill, before serving.

Tips:

  • To make the perfect cheese grilled sausage, start with high-quality ingredients. Look for linguica sausage that is made with fresh, flavorful pork and a blend of spices. The cheese should be a good melting cheese, such as cheddar, mozzarella, or Monterey Jack.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when grilling the sausage. This will prevent the sausage from cooking evenly and will make it more likely to stick to the pan.
  • Cook the sausage over medium heat until it is browned on all sides and cooked through. This will take about 10-12 minutes.
  • Once the sausage is cooked, remove it from the pan and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
  • To make the cheese sauce, melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in the milk until the sauce is smooth and thickened. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  • To assemble the cheese grilled sausage, place a slice of sausage on a bun. Top with cheese sauce and your favorite toppings, such as grilled onions, peppers, or mushrooms.
  • Serve the cheese grilled sausage immediately with your favorite sides, such as coleslaw, potato salad, or french fries.

Conclusion:

Cheese grilled sausage is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying dish that the whole family will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give cheese grilled sausage a try.
