The seasonings were ordered here locally, SA, 1.200grams , it's a complete mix with Sodium nitrite etc . Russian and chips is a typical South African take-away food - pork sausage and chips. the small period in the smoker, gave my sausages the slight smoky flavor of the traditional Russion sausage, I added about a third of pork belly. Frying it in oil makes the skin crisp, i WILL have to like it - i now have a lot !
