ISO Great Italian Sausage
Hey all.
Want to make some Italian sausage for dinner on Monday or Tuesday. We're having a veggie lasagne and I want meat. I thought some sausage as a side would do the trick.
My stand by is the Costco stuff. It's great but as a feature, I'd like something better.
Via Italia area is best for me but will travel.

When I lived in the West End I lived by the Cheese Boutique's hot Italian sausage but now I've moved east and I live by Royal Beef's , for exactly the same reasons: great flavour, good heat,excellent texture and not a ton of fat. Royal is on Danforth just west of Woodbine.
The lamb sausage is also excellent but I found the maple garlic and breakfast sausages disappointing.

I adore the hot italians from White House Meats (St. Lawrence Mkt. or Bayview.) Sometimes contain fennel, sometimes not - either way, gorgeously seasoned, not too fatty and nice and spicy!
I only use theirs when making a calabrese sauce. No contest.

Davwud, I'd go to any small Italian meat store down your way and ask for their home-made sausages. I don't know any specific ones in your 'hood, but I've bought them at a place called Roberto's at Keele and Wilson or Lady York Foods at Dufferin south of Lawrence. They both have several varieties, including some with fennel seed etc. Really good with a veggie pasta.
