I FOUND THIS ON MY TRIP TO BALTIMORE


Unfortunately the Sausage Master himself was not available to comment.

Coming Full Circle in Sausage Week '09

"Don't tie your dog to a leash of sausages."
-French proverb


I didn't expect to come across the racing sausages from Sausagegate again, let alone in yet another Sausage game!?

Holy crap. Take me to Milwaukee.

Drop me off at Klement's so I can talk with Patio Daddio.


What a sec, what the...



FLABBERGASMS!!!

Sausage: from 3,000 years ago!!


"But he himself kept tossing, turning, intent as a cook before some white-hot blazing fire who rolls his sizzling sausage back and forth, packed with fat and blook--keen to broil it quickly, tossing, turning it, this way,..."

-Homer, the Odyssey

"Blood sausage was being made 2,000 years ago and is the oldest sausage ever mentioned in written literature in Homer's Odyssey."


You can't deny history. Sausage=civilization. Booyakashaaaaa!

British Sausage Week Ain't Got NOTHIN' on pDice!



It has come to my attention, via our closely moderated comments section, that other entities around the world have (at various times) declared a Sausage Week of their own, most notably in Great Britain!

This is a good thing, by and large, for the advancement of sausagery. However, it bears mention that Prankster Dice continues to bring you the best in sausaging around the clock.

My personal favorite week-long tribute to squishy meat tubes is from a blogger in the Chicago area, known cryptically as 'MAC,' who last year spent a week indulging in the fleshy pleasures of all things sausage. (He also took the above photo, whilst endeavoring to make bratwurst.)

We know you have a number of choices when you celebrate amalgamated meat products; thanks for choosing pDice!

SAUSAGE THURSDEEE!*

“From where you sit, the White House may look as untidy as the inside of a stomach. As is said of the legislative process, sausage-making and policy-making shouldn't be seen close-up. Don't let that panic you. Things may be going better than they look from the inside.”

-Donald Rumsfeld paraphrasing Otto Von Bismarck

-That one guy at Sausage Week 2007



It's official. Sausage has that je ne sais quoi.

It's taking over my life. Sausage Week 2009 has rendered my fridge stocked of cylindrical goodness, my belly is becoming overwhelmingly oversized, and you know what?

Je m'en fous.

I am letting myself go, and sausage is taking over. Like in Ghostbusters. With that guy. Zoul. There is no Quel, only Sausage.

So festive are my feelings about this special week that happens once a year, I make an annual cross-country, long distance call to my old pal Mr. Odom at his headquarters, "the Bottomless Pit." This year Mr Odom and I chatted about the implications of cross-comparing bottomless pits and sausages and decided that the two are in fact related. We talked about Three Penny Opera, fraudulent frozen chicken commerce, and the infamous Emperor Norton.

Most importantly, however, we talked sausage. Thank you sausage, for being that special food that connects us all.

Amen.



You can hear the bite-sized viennese here:

...or the family-style linguica, complete with Mr Odom's choice musical cutlets here.

Or just make a commitment to regularly visit the buffet platter offered by Pirate Cat Radio.

Sausage Week* Wednesday!


*Now with more Vitamin A than ever!

Today we're going to learn about braunshweiger: a spreadable (!) German sausage made almost entirely of pork liver. You may remember this delight from David Lynch's The Straight Story, and if you've ever tried it, you'll know that the taste is hard to forget.

And now, please enjoy a most disgusting piece of sausage art:




Barf!

PDCE Sausage Week* Tuesday

*Now officially endorsed by Stumpgrinders Society!!!

I don't know how that relates to sausage electricity, but nonetheless the video below is dedicated to my good friend Milo the Mad Scientist.
