Cumberland Sausages
Cumberland Sausages
Full product description
A proper British classic. Our Cumberland sausages are coarse-ground, pepper-forward and gorgeously savoury, with herbs that lift without overpowering. Often made as a traditional coil, they brown to snappy skins and a juicy centre in the pan, oven or on the BBQ. Brilliant with buttery mash and onion gravy, tucked into baps with fried onions, or roasted on a tray with potatoes and rosemary.
