I don't have a microwave but I do have some frozen sausages that I need to defrost in less than an hour.
Anyone know how without poisoning myself?

I'd probably just stick em on a low heat in the oven for a bit, then turn the heat up for 20 mins or so.

Why spoil a good barbie by defrosting the sausages first? Just sling them straight on.

But, if you must, put them in a big bowl of cold water, changing it every few minutes as it starts to get really cold. Might just about have time. Good luck.

maybe run 'em under the hot tap for a bit?

bear in mind i've not eaten meat in about 20 years now though, so i have no idea whether that's safe/hygienic or not...

Leave under a running tap,
imerse in a bowl of water,
or place under a troll and leave to fester,until warm,then have a good laugh.

Just cook them from frozen. What is the problem?
Oh, unless you froze a pack instead of buying frozen? Still cook them from frozen, just real slow, in the oven. Split them half way through.

I cook sausages, that I froze myself, in the oven. Gas mark 5, 30 mins. No problems yet.

Stick em down your pants. It's the optimum defrost temp there.

the only alternative I have to fatty sausages is quiche
vegetable quiche
that's not an alternative

I bought them unfrozen and froze them, I wasn't aware that was a crime
my pants aren't quite full at the moment due to the cold weather, but that's a last resort

I'll stick them in the oven for a 40 minutes or so
you can't overcook a sausages can you?

i worked in a sausage factory for 8 years after school, dont worry, there's nothing you can do to them that has'nt been done allready, as long as they are cooked all the way through you will live
