Sausage Recipes - Bangers and Mash, a Classic British Pub Dish

The skinny, shrivelled up breakfast sausages we regularly consume in the USA bear little relationship to the classic butcher's sausages that are taken for granted in the UK. Whatever the filling, British sausages are thick, generous (at least an inch in diameter and sometimes an inch and a half, 4 to 5 inches long) and juicy. Two, accompanied by mashed potatoes and onion gravy (the classic bangers and mash), make a very filling, man-sized meal.
