Before we get to the recipes, let us tell you a little bit about how the sausage got to America.
History of American Sausage:
In the 21st century, sausage has become an American staple. Our love for them has made us closely knit with American culture. From the
BBQ pits of Texas to the busy streets of New York, sausage has made its way into the hearts and stomachs of most Americans. However, these beautiful and tasty pouches of ground meat came to America and especially to Texas thanks to German and Czech immigrants. Enough with the history lesson, let us tell you about our halal sausage.
What is Halal Sausage?
For those of you who are not familiar with the term ‘halal’, let us begin by telling you that it is not a flavor. Halal is an Arabic term that is roughly translated as ‘permitted’ or lawful. In the case of sausage, it applies to the meat. Muslims are only permitted to consume that is halal. For any kind of meat (which does not apply to pork) to be considered halal, it needs to be adhering to certain conditions. Please read our article about what is halal BBQ to gain a better understanding of halal meat.
Easy Halal Sausage Recipes:
Before we begin let us tell you that these recipes apply to the sausage that isn’t halal as well. Now let’s get started.
Gumbo:
Are you a fan of Cajun food? Our spicy jalapeno halal sausage is perfect for your gumbo. An easy recipe is simply to chop up some celery, carrots, garlic, and onions and cook them in the roux ( a roux is nothing but a mix of oil and flour cooked together). When making gumbo, be sure to make a dark roux. Once you’ve sweated out your veggies in the roux, add in your favorite stock (chicken or beef) and simmer.
Like texas style BBQ, a gumbo is cooked low and slow. Add in our chopped spicy halal sausage along with some fresh thyme, and black pepper, and let it cook out. If you are going for a traditional Gumbo dish then you cannot overcook it. You can cook it for as long as you want but in case you don’t have all the time in the world, we would advise you to cook it for 2 to 3 hours.
