Sausage Chocks   (+9)  [vote for, against]
dammit, stay still

Small, square-base pyramids with deeply convex sides/edges of metal, each with a wooden chopstick-width two inch handle.

More even browning.

(+) This won't help to brown the underside of the curve though. The trick with sausages is to flatten them to the pan curve side down first. That way they stick to the pan and brown on that side as long as you don't try to turn them too early.

+ sure! I have had those self-propelled sausages that jump around the pan on their own! This should work. (I must say, early in the morning I read sausage clocks)

Cast iron pan, fry one side of the sausages and then throw the entire pan into a hot oven.

What's wrong with triangular profiled sausages? Just turn them three times on the pan and they're evenly fried.
-- xenzag, Aug 03 2021


Perhaps a cast iron pan with sausage-shaped indentations to make uniform sausages in both shape and colour? A takoyaki pan of sorts

//takoyaki pan// - <dives into Google Maps, calculates distance from my desk to the last place I got takoyaki> ... 5771.48 miles. The wife's not going to go for that... check me off as disappointed.

And when I explain what takoyaki is... mark me disappointed again.

And when I look at the main idea and remember how my body reacts to sausage... again.

<posits little low speed bulldozer, with an attachment to hold the sausage down when its transverse curve wants to pop up the ends or the middle... if it wasn't for the caterpillar tracks scratching the non-stick pan... I'm not doing very well today>

//caterpillar tracks scratching the non-stick pan//
[lurch]; see linky. Rubber tracks, no problem!

As soon as I come across an animal with triangularly shaped bowels, I'll let you know...

synthetic casing is best casing

//an animal with triangularly shaped bowels//You've not encountered what is commonly known as the Pythagoras hog yet, whose internal organs are all regularly shaped geometric figures.

Best I can do is wombats with cubical poos.

Misread the title as 'Sausage clocks' and so was slightly mystified why the idea wasn't describing a device to orient sausages like the hands of a clock in your frying pan as they cooked, synchronised in some way to a time signal.

Try saying Sausage Chocks five times fast.
-- 2 fries shy of a happy meal, Aug 05 2021


And so again with synthetic casing, how do you enforce the shape?

Maybe if you kept the links linked end-to-end, then tied the first to the last, for a sausage emergency triangle sign.

Combo sausage extruder/cooker?
