Is a bad one better or worse than not having one.
Really fancy one but none of the shops near me do one as good as one from home?
Bad is always better than none, fact
Pork is good in all forms, FACT!
Brown or red sauce, that's the question. I keep changing my mind.
Brown.
If you get proper sausages from the butchers they will have less fat,tuck in !!!
sandwicheater - MemberPork is good in all forms, FACT!
But great when quality & cooked properly
Brown sauce BTW
Cant beat home.
Some sandwich shops cook the sausages before hand then heat them when ordered. Shop near our works used to do them, most by phone & delivered. It was only when I walked up there one day & noticed they had no facilities to cook other than a microwave... 😐
Hence some can be pretty ghastly.
Home cooked.
In this situation bacon is always the safer option. A good snooker sarnie is a rare thing
Never buy bad quality sausages do without.
Sauce? No. See above you won't need it but if you want a condiment then a good onion marmalade.
I feel it necessary to point out pork MUST be consumed when ever possible.
If said butty shop serves a bad one, mark it down in your mental pork map for future reference and move onto the next pork vending establishment.
Should the sausage be plain sausage or a speciality such as Tomato and Pork or Wild Boar etc?
Agree with sqweeeezzz - a good sausage butty is indeed a rare thing.
As with bacon, a mediocre one is better than nowt, but a truly bad one, is far worse than nothing at all.
Brown sauce - has to be HP though
Sauce? No. See above you won't need it but if you want a condiment then a good onion marmalade.
*Adds Drac to the list*
One of my 2 options which I won't ever go in sold me the following egg and bacon sandwich.....
the thinnest white bread, bacon reheated in microwave then......
a pre cooked fried egg that was then microwaved.
Its been 10 years and I'm still not over it.
Cumberland wheel with English mustard. No better sandwich
*Adds Drac to the list*
The list of awesomeness?
Sandwich eaten. Just about better than no sandwich.
All this pork talk has got me hungry.
Calls wife to request we have sausage butty for lunch.
English Mustard on a Pork Sausage or Cumbernauld Sausage sarnie and Hot Horseraddish on a Pork/beef mix, never Brown sauce and absolutely never Red sauce.
Bad sausages in sandwiches are no good thing. Chilli sauce on them is the true path btw, ideally pips nagatropolis.
Brown or red sauce, that's the question. I keep changing my mind.
Mix red and brown in equal measure and add a bit of Encona !
Try it you will thank me !
Enough of this heresy red sauce,mustard, and worst of all onion marmalade! It is brown sauce and will always be brown sauce, Preferably on a square sausage though links are acceptable. You should where possible have a roll and sausage although a sausage sandwich is acceptable
The best sausage sarnie I've had in a long time was at Grizedale cafe and they use onion marmalade nomnomnom .
PICTURES!
There's no such thing as a 'bad' sausage Sarnie! It's about degrees of good. And I'd even include a sausage and egg mcmuffin in that. Which isn't even technically a sausage!
And sauce? Got to be brown!
Brown for sausage and/or egg, red for bacon. HP for brown, Heinz for red.
Them's the rules.
red for bacon
Have him burned! 😡

I had a good one from there as well.
Onion marmalade is all very well but to recklessly discard red and brown sauce is deviant and unwelcome in the extreme. It's like saying 'methinks'.
NO! a bad sausage is worse than starving.
a cheapo nasty sausage is a crime and those who create and distribute them should be treated the same as heroin dealers in my book.
a good sausage is a thing of joy and should be revered and praised (by eating) at every opportunity
if your hungry and cant get to a sausage right now, read this;

-disclaimer, it is rather off-putting dont read it if you are eating
Oh man, I'm an idiot, sat here having soup for lunch when I have some Gloucester old spot specials from the farm butchers in the freezer, stupid man!
Oh well, at least that's tea sorted then, with a few slices of the fresh granary loaf I bought this morning, and..... Tomato/onion relish and tiny bit of mayo, that should send the purists into apoplexy!
I've got some sausage cooking as I type good butcher sausage, round stuff not the squashed scottish stuff, there will be no sauce red or brown as the sausages taste good so don't need to be drowned in that sweet rubbish to hide the flavour; See Binners and his MacDonalds post as to why he thinks it needs brown. I may however put a dollop of onion marmalade on to enhance their goodness.
Anonymous is as wrong as it's possible to be.
Sausage and egg with red sauce.
Bacon on its own with brown sauce.
Thems the rules.
Not just Brown sauce but HP Brown sauce.
Can you still get Daddy's?
To misquote a line from a movie the name of which I clean forget: sausage sandwiches are like sex: even when they're bad, they're still pretty good.*
*I don't agree with this.
What's a cumbernauld sausage bikebuoy? 😀
Arghhhhh! Another version of the sauce debate! Here is the right way to do it!
Bacon - optional but brown if you like. DEFINITELY NOT KETCHUP
Egg - as above
Mushroom - as above
Tomatoes - as above
Sausage - brown if with cooked breakfast, ketchup and mustard if in sandwich
If you have strayed before, now you have no excuse!
Daddies not HP...
I'm no keyboard warrior but if you contradict my posts above - those will be fighting words!
Why would you have brown sauce or ketchup with Mushrooms or Tomatoes? 😐
It was all going well until..
ketchup and mustard if in sandwich
You're a wrong-un' 😉
Both wrong, STOKES FTW.Daddies not HP...
Ketchup and Mayo, mmmm
I've just been sick in my mouth.
MAYO! ON A SAUSAGE SANDWICH?!
Bugger. I have no bread and no sausages 🙁
PS, don't forget the humble fish finger sarnie. Mmmmmmmmm.

FTFY
I had a massive gammon steak for lunch. I hope that porcine delicacy will excuse me from not eating sausages today.
bacon egg and melted cheese, chilli sauce. our sandwich shop uses a blowtorch for the cheese. happy heart attack.
Bacon jam, that is all.
Bacon well done with hp brown
Sausage whole not sliced fruity brown and dash of english mustard
Went through a phase of sausage butties from a butchers on a job having tommy k and mustard .... dont know what was wrong with me to be honest.
Chvk, mayo is amazing. I have a serious problem with it. I try to ration myself and look at the calories every time I reach for the jar.
No place with a sausage though.

Part of a cooked breakfast...
You're a wrong-un'
It's been said before... 
Red sauce, I'm not a northern monkey 🙄 (well scottish parents but can't stomach the haggis)
Mmmmmm lorne aka square sausage or even sausage and spam butties ftw!!!
My name is Lorne, makes for litterally seconds of hilarious fun on family holidays in Scotland in the Dumfries tesco.
Brown!
Do you lot own Whippets and flat 'ats?
I bet you have bread and butter with chips as well!
Lincolnshire sausage for the win. No sauce, apart from possibly a light chili sauce. Brown bread, rough cut, butter both sides.
Om nom nom, now have to clear dribble off my keyboard...
Flat ats brilliant. I think most northerners eat sausage as were all "hard done by" oop narf.
