RHUBARB-CHIPOTLE SAUSAGE



Rhubarb-Chipotle Sausage image

What can I say...I love rhubarb and its versatility. This is a sweet/spicy sausage that is delicious smoked with hickory wood chips. I fried a test patty on the stove to check the seasonings before the corn husk wrapping party began and it's very tasty that way too. It cooks in minutes as opposed to hours if you don't have the patience or time to sit by the grill.

Time 3h10m

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups rhubarb, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 (7 ounce) can chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
¼ cup ruby port wine
2 tablespoons white sugar
5 pounds ground pork
2 teaspoons salt, or to taste
2 teaspoons ground black pepper, or to taste
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
30 dried corn husks, or as needed
kitchen twine

Steps:

  • Bring rhubarb, chipotle peppers with sauce, ruby port, and sugar to a boil in a saucepan; simmer over medium-low heat until rhubarb is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
  • Blend the rhubarb-chipotle mixture in a blender until smooth. Place ground pork in a large bowl and thoroughly mix 2/3 of the blended sauce into the pork. Season with salt and black pepper.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Form about 2 tablespoons of the pork mixture into a small patty and pan-fry the patty until browned and no longer pink, about 5 minutes per side. Taste the patty and mix remaining rhubarb-chipotle sauce, salt, and black pepper to taste into the uncooked pork mixture (do not taste uncooked pork).
  • Soak corn husks in warm water in a large bowl until softened, about 10 minutes. Heat a smoker to 250 to 275 degrees F (120 to 135 degrees C) and add wood chips to the smoker.
  • Scoop up about 1/3 cup to a scant 1/2 cup of seasoned pork mixture and form into a sausage shape; place into a soaked corn husk and tie the ends of the husk with twine to enclose the sausage. If husk is too narrow to cover entire sausage, use 2 husks per sausage. Repeat with remaining husks and pork mixture.
  • Smoke sausages in the preheated smoker until thoroughly cooked and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the middle of the thickest sausage reads 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), about 2 hours.

ONE-POT CREAMY SHELLS AND SAUSAGE



One-Pot Creamy Shells and Sausage image

Just like your favorite boxed shells and cheese, this recipe turns out a dinner that's creamy, irresistible and made in a single pot. But unlike the boxed version, this upgrade will fill up the whole family-thanks to the addition of hearty Italian sausage and Muir Glen™ tomato basil pasta sauce. Cooking the whole meal in a single pot isn't just convenient, it also allows you to build flavor as you go. Here's what we mean: It all starts with browning the sausage until it's cooked through. Removing the sausage but not the rendered fat it leaves behind adds deep savory flavor to the onions, garlic and red pepper flakes that get sautéed next. After your aromatics, you'll add the tomato sauce, which is handy since it'll help deglaze the pan and integrate more flavor into your sauce. With the addition of the broth, you'll have enough liquid to cook your pasta. Once the pasta is cooked through, all that's left is adding the cream and cooked sausage. Serve this up with shredded Parmesan and basil, and you've got a delectable dinner that might just become a part of your regular rotation.

SAUSAGE WITH CHARD AND RHUBARB



Sausage With Chard and Rhubarb image

This quick sausage dish is perfect for spring. The dark green chard adds freshness, while the rhubarb lends a citrus-like sour note that cuts through the richness of the sausages. If you don't have any mustard seeds on hand, leave them out. While they do add a pleasant heat and gentle crunch, you won't miss them if you didn't know they were supposed to be there. Use any kind of sausage you like here: pork, duck, lamb or turkey all work well with the rhubarb and greens.

Time 25m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Tips:

  • Choose the right sausage: A good quality, spicy sausage will give this dish the best flavor. Look for a sausage that has a good amount of heat, but not so much that it's overwhelming.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the sausage, make sure to give it enough space so that it can brown evenly. If you overcrowd the pan, the sausage will steam instead of brown.
  • Cook the sausage until it's crispy: The sausage should be cooked until it's crispy on the outside and cooked through on the inside. This will give it a nice texture and flavor.
  • Use fresh rhubarb: Fresh rhubarb is best for this dish. If you can't find fresh rhubarb, you can use frozen rhubarb, but make sure to thaw it completely before using.
  • Add the rhubarb at the end: The rhubarb should be added to the dish at the end of the cooking process. This will help to preserve its color and flavor.

Conclusion:

This Rhubarb Chipotle Sausage dish is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The spicy sausage, sweet rhubarb, and creamy sauce come together to create a dish that is both flavorful and satisfying. Serve it with rice, mashed potatoes, or your favorite side dish.
