I was in BJ's the other day and one of the item they were sampling was
Jimmy Dean precooked sausage links. I like JD sausage and have it once or twice a week. The sample tasted just as good as what I make from the chub package. I wonder what the price is? So I had over to the case as one of the things I was picking up was JD sausage. Of course, I looked at the price per pound. OMG! The precooked came out to $23 per pounds as compared to the DIY at $3. Needless to say, I will continue to cook my own. To be fair, the cooked would have had a little loss from fat rendering but would still be exorbitant. What I do is fry up a full pan of patties cut from the chub. I partially freeze it to make cutting easier. A few on the plate, the rest in a container for future meals. They heat up in 20 0r 30 seconds in the microwave. |

Cook the full pound and store the rest in the 'frig in a covered bowl. Ready to eat with whatever I decide breakfast will be that day. No need in slicing and frying everyday and cleaning up a mess when you only have one mess to clean up when the full pound is cooked. |

That's not really a Jimmy Dean sausage. It's some kind of food bowl with sausage,eggs, potato, and some kind of cheese substance. I'd eat it if I was hungry enough. Last night I was hungry so I looked in the freezer and saw a bowl of convenience but the frost on the plastic film covering it was obscuring the contents. The only thing I could make out was a single bean. I didn't eat it - guess I wasn't hungry enough. Perhaps one day. |

Not much meat, but the > biscuit part is tasty, specially w/ Sriracha Sauce. Anything is tasty with sriracha. Toward the end of my participation in the Society for Creative Anachronism we used to take sriracha to medieval feasts. Anything that wasn't very good got a liberal squirt of sriracha. Authentic? No. But most of the cooks were on a tight budget and rarely cooked for 100-200 people, so results were quite variable. Cindy Hamilton |

I buy all my dry herbs and spice at my local (only 1/3 mile away) health food store. Also bulk grains. All are fresh and organic too. Good deal. I recently discovered that I've run out of basil which I use often. Will be making another trip soon for that and also any others that I'm low on. Last time I went, I bought about 2 dozen large bay leaves (along with many others). The bag was so light that when I got home, I noticed that the price was $0.00. lol |

We used to use Penzey's until the owner abused our trust by using our email addresses to spam us with political views (no relation to spices). |

I particularly detest the ones that have that bologna like texture i.e. those hosed from the huge slurry vat. I can attest that getting the seasoning correct in relation to the batch size is tricky for DIY folks. BTDT ruined a good amount of nice meats trying. Best bet it seems is the small town meat market. I know of a couple makers that are remarkable .. at least according to me. |

Don't judge a sausage by its texture! I once found a local maker (Oakland, CA) that made "bologna like (sic) texture" hot-links that looked like "foot-long hot dogs", but were some of the best hot-links I've ever paid good $$ fer. This was back in the 80's. ;) nb |

You get to bait the bull, that's payment enough! Jimmy Dean was a famous American singer, entertainer, and sausage king. You might know him from famous movies such as "Diamonds Are Forever" and... and... you know... others! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XbwDGtj84YY |

In his last film, he was pretty much past his prime for the role. I liked the Australian model and used car salesman George Lazenby - he walked smoother than the other bonds. His Bond movie was different from all the others and was a hit. The producer made a big mistake by not having George under contract so he filled a suitcase with money and told him to sign a contract. Mr. Lazenby was not interested in making another Bond film, selling out, or being a contract flunky, so he walked away from that deal/suitcase. It's a very funny story! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8UhlEPV6uc |

A few months ago I did have a coupon for a breakfast bowl, probably Jimmy Dean, for 75¢ off and the price was still ridiculous. I threw the coupon away when I got home knowing I could do better standing at my own stove. |

In the ancient mists of time, spices were worth their weight in gold. Ships sailed the seas on a very active spice trade route. Also imported were silks and other exotic things, but spices were highly prized. Jill |

Don't drag customers into your politics. I don't have a spice shop nor any sort of international market near where I live now. At one time I did live near an actual Penzey's Market. They opened a store in Germantown, TN. A hop, skip and a jump from my apartment. And I was taking some classes for work practically across the street shortly after they opened. So I went in there one day on the lunch break. OMG... the heavenly scent of herbs and spices was amazing. They had little baskets set out like potpourri. I spent an entire hour in there. I have to say, Penzey's shops smell wonderful. :) I didn't walk out empty handed. Jill |
