What meat is in chorizo sausage?

Answer 1

Sausage, (chorizo) in spanish, is made from excess amounts of pig. A 'company' uses the legs, ears, skin, meat, for pork products, such as bacon and ham. but the amount of unnecessary flesh left is used for chorizo. And the part that pops out from the end of the chorizo is the pig's small intestine.

Answer 2

Chorizo (or Chouriço in Portugese) is a type of spicy pork sausage, flavoured with smoked paprika, usually fermented and cured and served sliced with drinks, as tapas. It can be cooked in casseroles and stews and is made in both hot and mild versions. It is delicious as a breakfast dish, fried with eggs and a rich tomato sauce. Chorizo is pronounced as it is spelt, with no 't' sound before the 'z'.

Answer 3

To Begin Chorizo: In a large bowl place:

• 2 Lb. ground pork.
• 3 1/2 tsp. salt
• 6 Tbl. pure ground red Chile
• 6-20 small hot dried red chiles; tepine, Thai dragon, pico de gallo or the like, crushed
• 4-6 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 Tbl. dry leaf oregano
• 2 tsp. whole cumin seed, crushed
• 1 tsp. fresh ground black pepper
• 1 1/2 tsp. sugar
• 4 Tbl. good cider or wine vinegar
• 2 1/2 Tbl. water

Have everything cool. Break up the meat, sprinkle evenly with the rest of the ingredients, cut in with two forks until evenly mixed, then knead a bit with your hands until well mixed. At this point the chorizo will keep for at least a couple weeks in your refrigerator, or let it season for a couple days in your refrigerator, then wrap it in small packages, (3-4 oz. is about right for two people), and it will freeze fine for months. It can also be stuffed into casings and smoked like any other pork sausage.

Answer 4

When I was a child, my aunts would buy a whole side of pork, cut all the meat from the bones, grind it up and mix it all together - their parents came from the old country, where you used the whole pig, not just specific parts.

Different spices and different amounts of specific spices result in different flavors.
