Having said I was scrapping the lamb sausages because of the dramatic increase in the cost of lamb I have been asked to make the Turkish Sosis with beef instead. It was originally 20% beef anyway. We'll be making 5kg next week as an experiment. The price will be considerably less!
Just looking at this picture you can see that we will have to do something about the packaging. It has worried me for a long time and now the Broadacres Super Spar have asked to have our sausages again I really have to think of some way of making them look more attractive in the freezer because, at the moment, they don't look very appetising. I had a discussion about it at the Spar and I have a few ideas. I am also going to look at having a specific number of sausages in a pack; 6 English Breakfast, 6 Lincolnshire something like that. It would also make it easier for you, the customer, to know exactly how many sausages you are buying.
Bacon
I have been experimenting with the bacon as well. The Streaky Bacon has much more flavour than the Back partly because it is smoked differently. Last week I experimented with a small piece of Back Bacon to see if I could adjust the smoking method to see if I could be made more flavoursome without making it too smoky. I'm pleased with the result so far. We really do try and improve our products all the time without compromising in the way we do things. What makes PJS Food products individual is that they really are hand made. If you try to speed things up something is lost in the process and we would become just another manufacturer.
