Bangers are a favorite in pubs and homes all across the British Isles. Their name dates back to World War II when small rations of pork were extended in sausage making with additions of breadcrumbs. War-time bangers also contained a fair amount of water and tended to explode with a "Bang!" when they were cooked.
Lobel's Bangers are a very hearty version indeed—moist and moderately textured, juicy with sage-infused pork; they are plump, tender, and so flavorful.
Bangers are available in 1-pound packages, 4 sausages per pack.
Preparing Bangers
Traditionally, bangers are served as one half of that paragon of comfort food: bangers and mash. That’s mashed potatoes. Try them with a dollop of horseradish sauce or a sprinkling of garlic and onion powders and fresh parsley just before serving.
Bangers are also a cornerstone of the traditional, full Irish breakfast that includes thick-sliced smoked bacon or loin bacon, grilled tomatoes topped with grated cheese and herbs, eggs, soda bread, and good, strong coffee or Irish Breakfast tea.
Try grilling the bangers just enough to brown them—they’re fully cooked—and serve with grilled onions and potato salad.
Or try a one-pot boil of bangers, cabbage, potatoes, and pearl onions.
