A brilliant banger can make or break a meal. We were taught never to break things so these sausages are rather amazing things. They’ve been redone recently to make them everything a brilliant British banger should be.
They're from one of the best farms in the country – the ace Laverstoke Park in Hampshire. They like to do things properly, from growing a whole salad bar of healthy, unsprayed grasses for their animals to much, to making sausages that are full of meat and little else beyond a few spices and a pinch of rusk - just enough to hold the flavour in the sausage, and keep it nice and moist.
We get our sausages from Laverstoke Park in Hampshire. The pigs have acres of glorious of room to roam around in as well as sheds in which they can shelter from the sun and rain. In summer, to ensure they don't get sunburn, they have wallows for them to cover themselves in mud. When night draws in, they sleep in cosy straw-filled huts. Laverstoke Park is a Grade II listed park of approximately 275 rolling acres which include the upper reaches of the River Test. The farm is a haven of biodiversity and forward thinking organic farming. They have complex grass leys containing over 30 different grasses, clovers and herbs as well as a diverse mix of hedges, trees, animals and crops which all contribute to furthering the biodiversity.
