It&#8217;s available in a smoked\/cured version for eating or including in dishes, and raw, to be used as a cooking ingredient. There are variations of chorizo one finds as they travel the globe, in \u00a0Portugal it&#8217;s called chourico, in Mexico, the item is closer to the Spanish raw version, and is used in tacos and other Mexican treats.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The Portuguese version, which is also called linguica, is a popular item in Hawaii, and is even available in sliced medallions served with scrambled eggs and rice at McDonald&#8217;s!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">If you&#8217;ve traveled to Louisiana, the Cajun and Creoles have their own version of Chorizo, called \u201cChaurice,\u201d which is found in \u00a0local favorites like red beans and rice, and some gumbos.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">StoneRidge has taken the wonderfully complex \u00a0global flavors of Chorizo, and packed them into a natural casing pork bratwurst style sausage, perfect for grilling or sauteed on the stove top. Enjoy them on a bun, as a dinner entree, or incorporated into your special recipes.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Personally, I like slightly spicy sausages for breakfast, and it&#8217;s my habit to par boil them, (tho this is not needed) before slicing and pan frying to serve along side of eggs,instead of the usual pork breakfast meats.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">I LOVE this product. It&#8217;s undoubtedly one of the most flavorful sausages I have had in a long time. When it&#8217;s too cold to grill outside, I do my sausage in a cast iron skillet, put a little char on it. This morning I had it with cheese scamble with Cajun seasoning (pictured below). Yum.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Should you prefer to use StoneRidge&#8217;s Chorizo as an ingredient, to spice up a casserole, hot dish, scrambled eggs or stews, simply slice the casing open and saute the ground pork to your preference before adding to your recipe. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">StoneRidge makes over <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stoneridgemarket.com\/bratwurst\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">40 varieties<\/a> of pork and \u00a0chicken bratwursts, as well as specialty cheeses and if you don&#8217;t see them at your grocery, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stoneridgemarket.com\/cheese\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">order direct from the smokehouse <\/a>in Central Wisconsin, where they are carefully crafted using old world recipes.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">One other thing that impresses me about StoneRidge is their value proposition.
