They always roll onto the uncooked bit, a pan with some raised nodules would totally sort this issue and make everybody's life better?
Where can I buy one?
I don't want something with individual compartments, just something with some little sticky up bits.
No idea when I began here, was a very long time ago. Previously known as Spirit_of_81. Love cheese, hate the colour of it, this is why it requires some blue in it.
Are you cooking the sausages on their own? Prop them up with caramelised onions or hash browns or mushrooms or tomatoes or fried bread or black pudding or ....... This allows them to be blackened in the desired spot.

Don't believe a word I say. I'm only kidding. Or am I?
I often slice into them down the middle and stick them in a griddle pan. Creates a flatter surface area, gives them a nice gnarly crispy skin and ensures even cooking.
Stick 'em in the air fryer same as everyone else does.
The air fryer is basically the best thing that's happened in the kitchen in recent years. So much you can do with them. I've got two. One single and one double drawer.
My oven is completely redundant now. It's all air fryers and slow cooker. I'm actually wondering if an integrated oven can be removed and I could use the space for something else.

Uh... dry sauasages.

I did a double take on the thread title when I saw 'sausage cooking ban ?' and wondered if this was the latest made up slur that the Conservatives were going to try smearing Labour with...

Are they that good? I've resisted for a long time, mainly because I've got a really good oven which came with the house that I bought. It does all sorts of fancy things (much more that I could ever need) and so am reluctant to make that redundant.
My friend just spent over 40k on a complete kitchen refurb, has two brand new neff ovens and says he never uses them because of his £200 air fryer!

I've done all sorts in it. I think they're great. I do live on my own though so it's perfect for my solitary life, may not be so convenient if you have a big family.

Thanks for that, will have a look into it more. Part of me has been resistant because of the frying aspect. Trying to be healthy and rarely fry anything these days but from what I've read they only use a small amount of oil?

If any.
It has a basket inside where you can slightly raise what you are cooking so any excess oil drains out beneath it.

Hey Gainsy.
You have managed to say the daftest thing and the best thing in one thread, well done.
1/ Slicing your sausages prior to cooking is a terrible thing. It will lead to overcooking and dryness.
2/ The slow cooker is an amazing thing. half a pound of sausages for 12 mins is a magical recipe for success - especially if the sausages are from Cracknells.

Ok that's good. Thanks for the info, will look into them, they seem to be the in thing kitchen gadget, maybe with a bit of longevity about them
Will Air Fryers go the way of the fondue set, waffle maker, Breville sandwich toaster, food mixer etc.? Only time will tell if its destination is in the cupboard under the sink.

So they dry out and go wrinkly. That's the worst way to cook sausages. May as well microwave them.
The type of sausages may have a bearing on that, ones with a high water content might go wrinkly under the grill but a decent percentage of meat (over 75% I would suggest) and you need the baking tray underneath to catch the drops of fat. Turn the sausages every few minutes and within ten or less you have a nicely done pair of sausages, no added oil and a bit less fat than they started off with, to go with your eggs and black pudding.

If you are going to have sausages then always get some quality ones.
