The bangers and potatoes are good during March.

absolutely a must have in march. corned beef and cabbage with green
mashed garlic potatoes happens on St. Patty's day without fail though.

it's also great on very cool evenings at a campfire using brats instead
of bangers for a bit of German flair.

This morning I had bangers and kim chee fried rice at a recently opened restaurant. These were side orders so they brought them in small plates. They could have stuck it in one big plate but they didn't. They cut the bangers in half lengthwise to cook it. I wish they didn't do that. That sort of messes them up.

that looks really good.

to clarify, when i say bangers i'm referring to English bangers proper.
seems a lot of people use the term for sausage in general. i get them
made fresh at a butcher and simmer them in water to cook. occasionally
i'll brown them a bit after simmering but they don't really need it,
they taste great without it.

the bratwurst in the photos above are Johnsonville brand.

Indeed. If there isn't a bunch of cereal filler, it's not a banger.

These are called "Scottish Bangers." I first had them as a kid. I used to think they were a little weird but these days, they are an old time treat. They contain bread crumbs. I'd rather have a banger rather than a Portuguese, Filipino, or pork, sausage. As it goes, the Scots did play a role in Hawaii history.

Sounds like a real United Nations breakfast to me.

Definitely breakfast style in many places.

Its tough to say "these days", because so many places add veggie material to fricadelle, sausage or bangers.

It certainly is a fast and easy way to cook up a sausage. OTOH, it changes the basic nature of a banger by drying it out. It's more like a regular sausage than a banger. Here's a breakfast I had last week. These days, I get the senior breakfast. That's the breaks.

Didn't Subway add tofu instead of chicken? Without telling the poor
carnivores, of course.
