J Phillips (Theydon
Bois) - Pork & Leek
Theydon Bois
village gets visited quite often by
us on business so the temptation to
call in to both the very
good butchers shops located very
near each other for sausages is ever
there...
This time we
are sampling some Pork & Leek
sausages from J Phillips
on Coppice Row, Theydon Bois, Essex.
75+% meat
at least we're sure in good quality natural casings.
They look very good in the raw I'm
sure you'll agree. (That's the
sausages, not the butchers!)
Cooked up,
they were very good. Succulent and
smooth to medium textured. An excellent bite and chew,
and the flavour was as it should be
as far as I'm concerned. Ok quite a
bit of weight loss, and agreed the
taste was quite "meaty" which a
couple of the girlies commented on
that they didn't prefer, but come
on, pork and leek? Good leek taste,
yes? Ho hum, it's a democracy I
suppose so I'm afraid the scoring
reflects this.
Now don't get
us wrong these are very good Pork &
Leek sausages and would be worth
trying for sure. Get some and try them
yourselves...
