My first fatty

I realised at lunchtime that I had sausagemeat in the fridge that needed to be used up, and I am away for the weekend.

So I thought I would have a play, and see what it came out like.

Because I only had back-bacon, I couldn't do a weave, so I merely overlapped it around the sausage. It managed to stay together, and I don't think it came out to bad, either. Tasted ok, too.

Now I have mastered the basic idea, I can be more adventurous next time, and add a filling.

(And yes, I was a little overeager in slicing it too soon - left it for 15 mins, and still it spurted.)

That looks fantastic - I reckon that would be a cracking thing to do when you have folk come to stay!

I always like to drop a few slices on a supermarket pizza...

I've had some of it, and it is great. But I am off tomorrow morning, for the weekend, and I don't really want to take it with me!

Do people think it would be safe to freeze and then reheat again, another time? Or perhaps slice before freezing, and then use it as a source of pizza topping as suggested above?

Or should I just mark it up as a successful experiment, and bin what I can't eat before I leave?

Is it mainly sausagemeat with bacon wrapped round it (meaning the main recipe). I suppose you could put anything else in it like cheese or something?
