Video Summary
AI GeneratedThe presenter reviews Aldi's \"Specially Selected Ultimate Four\" Cumberland sausages. After examining the packaging and ingredients, the sausages are cooked in an air fryer. Despite a finer meat texture than expected, the reviewer praises their juiciness and peppery flavor, ultimately awarding them a 9/10 rating.
So, in this next video, I'm thanking Rich Lancaster for your recommendation—sent me an empty box, ooh, that must mean something.
I've been shopping at Aldi—come take a look at what I got.
And here it is, Rich—cheers! I'm new, so I specially selected the ultimate four Cumberland sausages.
You must know I do like my pig, I do love pork, I love sausages.
Delicately seasoned with spices and herbs.
Made with 100% British pork and outdoor-reared bread.
I have a small traffic light system, quantities per sausage grilled.
Red Tractor assured pork.
Suitable for air fryer, gluten-free.
I hope you're all absolutely spot on as well, by the way out there.
So the price was £3.29.
So let's take a closer look at the packaging.
So we'll dive straight into them—there you go, that's what you get.
Right, let's have a look at the box.
We've covered the front, let's go around the back.
We have 454 grams, we have a UK stamp, freezable.
We have some sausages made with outdoor bread, pork sausages with added spices, and stuffed into natural pork casings.
So you can cook them in the grill, you can cook them in the air fryer.
More nutritional information for people who are monitoring their weight.
These are sausages; they're going to be juicy, fatty, and naughty.
Here are the ingredients.
We have 85% pork.
The allergen is metabisulfite.
We have plenty of ingredients in there, don't we?
Rice flour, yeah, chickpea flour.
Dextrose
Can't you keep them out? Can't you keep them out?
Anyway, let me know in the comments what you think of the ingredients.
I know what you're saying; get yourself to the butchers.
Go to a local butcher.
But these are available in our supermarkets, and that's why I do the reviews.
Right, I might have covered everything.
If I happen to miss anything, I'll include a link in the video's description.
For more porky-related videos.
So let's take a closer look at them.
Open them up and see what we have.
Right, if you can hear a noise in the background, it's my dishwasher.
I do apologize for that noise.
So the seal peel test.
I'm going to sleep well again tonight, there we go.
There's the sausage, and it's connected over there—look.
Yeah, a nice big fat sausage.
You can see the herbs and the spices in there now, can't you?
Through their natural pork casings.
Right, a great candidate for the air fryer.
That's where they're going to go.
Let's get them in it now.
Mine are going in here.
So a little bit of explanation that I missed there.
Our outdoor-bred pigs are born outdoors and, after weaning, are moved indoors.
to be raised in straw-bedded barns on British farms.
And regarding the fillers, I suppose they have to fill them with something, don't they?
Fill them with more pork!
They're done.
Bring you down, we'll take a look.
So they did split, I never pricked it.
They separated on their own when heated.
They are still connected.
I'll cut one in half, and we'll take a look inside.
Right, so I'll tell you what, I'll cut that right there.
Let's set them aside.
What I'll do, I'll cut it lengthwise.
Straight down the middle.
Mmm, smells good.
They smell good.
That's inside, oh they're juicy.
They're juicy, that's inside, look.
Yeah.
Right, what I'll do, I think, is cut it again.
Like that, like that.
And then, and then this is what I'll do—I'll just chop this into pieces.
And I'll give this a try.
At my table.
It's quite finely mashed up, isn't it?
I was expecting something rough.
It's quite messy in there, yeah, it really is.
Extremely fine.
Mmm.
I'm expecting a peppery flavor to come through, given that a Cumberland sausage is from the north.
I lived down near, well, I lived in Newark-on-Trent.
We used to get Lincolnshire sausages down there.
And I wasn't too keen because they were very herbaceous.
But I came to love them.
I really did.
More of a herby sausage, whereas Cumberland sausages are more of a type that predominantly feature black pepper.
Yeah.
A spicy sausage that I really like.
Right, let's go up the table and try them.
And as I mentioned earlier, if you have a local butcher, please try to support them.
But as I mentioned earlier, these are also available in our supermarkets.
That's where I do the reviews.
Right.
Thank you for watching.
See what this is like.
Mmm.
Go ahead, I'm going in again.
Mmm.
Go ahead, they're juicy.
That's juicy.
I'm starting to get a bit of pepper through now.
These spices and herbs are mild.
Strong on pepper, which is good.
That's what I want.
That's what I want.
It's juicy as well.
It is.
I had the thermometer in, and they were up to temperature.
Mmm.
So the capitalization.
Sorry, I was talking with my mouth full.
It's just one of those things.
The casing isn't too tough.
Yeah, the pepper is coming through now.
It is.
It's quite finely minced together.
Yeah, I was expecting it to be a bit more, you know, rough than that.
Mmm.
Yeah, still love it.
Still nice though.
Nevertheless, I'm going in one more time.
I'll finish this.
Oh, that's lovely.
That's a nice, tasty sausage, that.
Thank you very much for the recommendation.
I do appreciate it.
Yeah, they sent me the picture.
It was boxed empty like that.
You grabbed them all up.
I don't blame you.
Yeah, regardless of it being somewhat finely minced meat rather than coarse,
But that's still delicious.
I think this would be lovely.
You could probably eat it for a breakfast sausage.
Or you could have it for an evening meal with sausage.
Yeah, well, it would go well.
A big, thick, juicy sausage for dinner.
You know, maybe a bag of chips.
A couple of fried eggs.
Yeah.
Or you could have it with breakfast as well
along with a couple of fried eggs and, you know, bacon.
It's up to you.
You can have sausage anytime, can't you?
I love it.
I could eat it anytime.
I could eat it for breakfast, lunch, tea, and dinner.
No problem.
Right, I've got some buns.
I'm going to put it in a bun with some brown sauce.
And I'm going to grab it right away.
That's for sure.
As I said, if you have any more recommendations,
I have a community page on my YouTube channel.
If you can send us a picture, then
with a brief note and the source where you found it
I'll try to get hold of it.
I'm in the process of trying to get hold of some new food.
at the moment, but the supermarket doesn't.
Excuse me.
It's repeating itself to me.
Oh dear, these dad jokes are terrible.
Yeah.
I'm trying to get hold of it, but the supermarkets
Don't have it, so.
Yeah, right.
Thank you for watching.
I do appreciate it.
Have a great weekend, whatever you're doing
And I will get back.
Oh, the marks, marks.
I forgot.
Yeah.
I'm going at a nine out of ten.
Goodness me.
Couldn't get me out nine times then, could I?
I'm going nine out of ten
And thank you for the recommendation.
Wishing you all the best
And I'll get back to you on the next one.
