Cooking sausages

G47

Im not sure if this is the right place so move if neccessary mods, im after some ideas as to how i can cook sausages, ive cooked them before in the oven but then you get all the fat which im not keen on and ive tried a frying pan but you still get all the fat,

I do mine in the oven but I don't add any fat to them. I turn them regularly and then drain them.

You could try grilling them and then the fat drains off into the pan, or buy very low fat sausages. I have to have gluten free sausages which are usually very good as dont contain a lot of the rubbish other sausages do and not so fatty

I cook mine in the oven but on a wire mesh grid so the fat runs through to the pan underneath. They're evenly cooked that way and not swimming in fat.

I cook mine under the grill on about half heat so they cook a bit slower and more evenly. I !!!!! them plenty of times so that fat drains out. I use the lower heat setting so the fat doesn't spit and smoke and set my smoke alarm off

I'm very similar to you troll.

I put the sausages in my very small roasting tin (but don't p*i*k them) and cook on the lower heat setting. I keep checking and pour off the excess fat as it comes out of them (I find even cheapie sausages aren't too bad done this way either). The reason that I use the small roasting tin is that I can't stand my grill pan getting yukky (a bit of a silly phobia I know) - everything gets grilled this way here.

I also have a very temperamental smoke/heat detector almost directly above the cooker (flaming male architects - no woman on this planet would have thought of putting one there!).

I read on here about boiling the sausages in a pan of water for about 10 mins, then finishing off in a frying pan.
Fat still comes out, but at least I'm happier that the sausages are fully cooked.

occasionally we grill ours but mostly use the george foreman.

Me too, in fact I use my grill pan but on the oven setting rather than the grill setting. I turn them once. I can never get sausages cooked evenly any other way!
