The most amazing meal....

I have just cooked the most amazing but simple meal. I bought a piece of pork shoulder and literally chucked it in a metal casserole dish with a bottle of cider and a pork stock cube. I slow cooked it in a low oven, with the lid on, for four hours, adding some carrots for the last hour. The cider reduced down to the most delicious gravy and the meat just fell apart. Incredible......

DD1 has a slow cooker sausage recipe that uses cider for the liquid. You can substitute apple juice, but she doesn't as a rule wink

Must try that one, nanapug. I have an irrational aversion to the idea of sausage casserole of - don't know why!

Please disregard the superfluous 'of' in there...

I've cooked a very good Italian sausage and lentil casserole that I found on the iPad. Can't remember where though?

Ana maybe you should try Venison Sausages. Not much fat.
There is a Delia recipe from back in the eighties. It was lovely.
