This is a single batch sausage - we're working on a Spanish-style chorizo and this one was our usual chorizo, but smoked. Let us know what you think.
This is a smoked version of our normal Chorizo - we only made one batch!
Brooks's first job was potting arborvitae at a nursery when he was 12. At 13, he was sent out on jobs as the only white kid with a crew of Mexicans who spoke minimal English. Guess which words they taught first in the crash course to migrant Spanish? This sausage embodies the flavors these men first introduced to a young palette - HOT and spicy, cumin, pepper and garlic. It's a flavor that takes Brooks back to when he hitch-hiked almost 4,000 miles to their hometown in 2005 to savor the local flavors. We'll save that one for later.

Worried you don't know how to cook? Here's the thing, the quality of your ingredients is sort of like a cheat code for cooking. Your dish is only as good as your weakest ingredient. Grab some fresh produce, a good NMP sausage, and some potatoes, rice or polenta...you got a meal!
