<\/a>I don’t remember seeing any fantastic, orgasmic, OMG gotta have it blog posts from the first days of the Flower and Garden Festival… No worries… I still wanted it.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Now, I was a bit more keen to try this than Nick was… Partly because I loved the sausage rolls that Sandy bought for a picnic in the park in Gateshead England…<\/p>\n I don’t remember seeing any fantastic, orgasmic, OMG gotta have it blog posts from the first days of the Flower and Garden Festival… <\/p>\n<\/a>The pork “sausage” was a very coarse grind, in fact, I’d go so far as to say that there were chunks of pork in the sausage. This was meaty and well balanced with the dough. Now it was a bit difficult to eat because the filling had separated from the crust (ring of crust and disk of pork and apple sausage). The apple wasn’t very prevalent. Regardless, Nick said that he’d take this pork offering over the pulled pork from The Smokehouse (uh oh) and I agree that this is more flavorful… I think this has made it to our “need to have again” list.<\/p>\n<\/a>The pork roll was served with piccalilli – I really expected that I’d like this and Nick wouldn’t be a fan. WRONG! I thought it was weak and mild, not too interesting. Nick liked it more than I did, he liked the mustard seeds, the crispness of most of the vegetables (excepting the cauliflower, which he said was smaller than Chef Ryan’s cauliflower at bluezoo), and the green beans. I was expected something more akin to chow-chow<\/a>, the piccalilli<\/a> I grew up with from my eastern NC relatives was more like chow-chow.<\/p>\n
