Hey, those short, fat little devils look like the real McCoy.  Glad you tried some before stuffing.  I always do and it's good to know how they'll be cooked.

Hi,
I have just come across this thread, I live in Scotland and as far as I know (and can taste) Scottish and English bangers are pretty much the same.  Some local butchers make their own which have various blends of spices, most are fairly coarse ground - like a Cumberland Sausage as on this link
http://www.sausagelinks.co.uk/recipe_detail.asp?id=56 
There is a type of sausage which is peculiar to Scotland (apart from haggis which is another story) called a 'Lorne' or 'Square Slice' which is made from beef and pork, shaped into square blocks and does not have a casing, as here:
http://www.scotlands-enchanting-kingdom.com/scottish-lorne-sausages.html
so it is not really a 'banger'.

Those are some good links you posted Waltz, Glad to hear Scottish and English Bangers are very similar. Thanks for the compliments guys and thanks for the recipe Tenpoint5  :)

Keymaster we should get together or talk sometime ( I live out in Graham). There is a couple of places locally to get meats.

Be careful about calling yourself and EXPERT! An ex is a has-been, and a spurt is a drip under pressure!
