Get your sizzle on...


Now you all know how much I love my brunch at the weekend... I save up my weeklies and have even been known to give up a gin to have an extra sausage on a Sunday morning, that's what she said eh?!  Now as you can tell by the dates I've been collecting this info for a while now but it's all still accurate from the relevant websites... The SPs are for the sausages raw as they are in the packs, not cooked. Remember not all sausages are created equally so keep your eye on the weight per sausage *coughs* ...

Now that eggs are free at brunch time it's nice to enjoy a good old sausage!

What's your fav?
