Glensallagh from Lidl are my favourites, I love them on a ciabatta with chilli, rocket and goats cheese.

I like these too. Can't stand any of the fluorescent bright pink ones with no texture and virtually no meat.

i don't think i am a sausage snob but i always read the ingredients and look out for a sausage with a high pork content. i just have this opinion that a good sausage should have around 80% of pork and should not be a bright pink colour

Kelly's of Newport: finest black pudding in the state, IMO.

Upon recommendation from another boardsie I gave this black pudding a try... was a tad disappointed with it, I found it just average.

Been on the look-out for a really good black pudding. Anyone try McCarthy's in Kanturk? They were on the radio during the week discussing it, saying it was made from fresh blood and not the dried stuff. Looked on their website but €12 for postage was a bit on the stiff side.

Saints & Scholars do a good sausage... bought some recently in Lidl, €2 a pack. 80% pork, 10% bacon pieces and cabbage too. Very tasty. Dunnes Simply better another good one, Hodgins too.

+1 on Superquinn sausages
Plus, the toulouse & herb n black pepper ones are quite tasty also

Glensallagh sausages from Lidl are yummy! Probably the tastiest for traditional style sausage.

As are:
Mallons
Garlic and Herb from Aldi
Tesco Finest Sausages with chilli and the ones with garlic and basil.

Sausages with garlic and herb are lovely with creamy mash, and lots of gravy, onion gravy is nice.

Cookstown sausages in Norn Iron

Some of those Dublin brands sound good too. And I'll have to buy some out of Superquinn next time I'm there.

Superquinn sausages taste nice but are annoyingly bendy when you're grilling them.

I like Clonakilty if I am buying from a Supermarket. Mainly buy the homemade ones from my local butchers.

The Clonakilty sausages (the big ones) are savage, but hey're beyond greasy!

Self Made

Butcher Peter Dunne in Glasthule is no more so I had to find another good sausage maker. I tried Hodgins of Cork in Tesco because the label said they were award winning and described them as a craft butcher. They were excellent.
