Pork with sausages in Black Beer
That is not a traditional Greek recipe but honestly anything with pork and sausages will always have a spice of Greece in it
When i was little one of the few things that i always ate was sausages. Fried, grilled anyway was great for me and to be honest i think all kids are the same. Sausages have a nice flavor and size that makes interesting for little kids. Very few of them will dislike them.
Add some beer on it and… you have an adult recipe!
In Greece we love making sausages and if you haven’t tried some local sausages from the country side then you don’t know what you are missing. Not because i am Greek, but there is no comparison with the british ones i ussually get over here.
The following recipe was made with sausages from Karditsa, a place in Northern Greece.
