- Bacon
- Wraps the sausage and crisps as it fries, adding fat and savory flavor.
The step that matters
Fry until cooked through. Bacon needs enough time and heat to render its fat and crisp, while the sausage must reach a safe internal temperature. Frying too fast can brown the outside before the centre is cooked through.
