Pheasant Sausage with Cognac

With the sweetness of fine cognac and the peppery hint of mace, this perfectly seasoned and flavored pheasant sausage is exactly what you need to add a little variety to your menu. The taste of pheasant is rich, mild, and not gamey, enhanced with the butterscotch schnapps and cognac, and offset with intense herbs like tarragon, juniper and hints of mace.

This sausage is perfect to throw on the grill and serve sizzling hot at your next cookout, but it’s also a superb choice for a fall or winter dinner, served with polenta, wild rice or even a hearty pasta. Split the casing and throw in a rich tomato sauce for a sumptuous result, incorporate it to your stuffing come Thanksgiving, or even serve for breakfast alongside some truffle scrambled eggs. The crowd-pleasing flavor is sure to satisfy the most demanding foodies.

This delicious sausage comes from Chateau Royal, a family-run company that has produced some of the best charcuterie in America since 1988, under the careful leadership of an in-house Swiss chef. They take pride in using premium, all-natural ingredients and a healthy dose of culinary creativity in all their sausages and charcuterie.
