2088.0. "Sausage Recommendation" by PNEUMA::WILSON (I'm the XTC.) Wed Nov 08 1989 12:03

    I'm looking for a good brand of sausage for a Chicago-style pizza I
    plan to make. 
    
    Suggestions? What about Jimmy Dean sausage?

    I like buying saussage from the butcher, I like it better then what is
    available from the grocery store.

2088.2Turkey Italian-style sausageREORG::AITELNever eat a barracuda over 3 lbs.Wed Nov 08 1989 16:2711
    I use turkey sausage, Italian style.  It's available in the Shaws
    supermarkets and some other stores here in Southern NH.  Check around
    if you live in another area.
    
    Turkey sausage is much lower in fat than pork sausage.  It makes
    a pizza that is a lot less greasy.  
    
    I precook the sausage in a skillet, slice them into rounds, and
    use them on the pizza.  It really is delicious.

2088.6JONES Sausage Pre-CookedPNEUMA::WILSONShe's a Little LighthouseWed Apr 11 1990 12:1517
    Hi everyone,
    
    Thanks for your suggestions. I tried using JONES sausage and it came
    out GREAT. That is an excellent commercial brand, in my opinion, and I
    would recommend using it. Follow the cooking directions on the carton,
    however; I think it mentions frying them in cold water. 
    
    The deep dish pizza was a great success! I used three different
    cheeses, sausage, mushrooms, and two different kinds of peppers on top.
    I'm planning on making another one this weekend for friends and family.
    
    The great advantage of deep dish pizza is the vegetables, meats, etc.
    do not dry out because they are encased in layers of crust. 
    
    One bit of advice: always make a little bit more dough than the recipe
    calls for; I had to really roll out the dough and it was a pain. Any
    extra you can always use to make small rolls.
