Plan your celebrations for British Sausage Week

The biggest sausage celebration of the year gets underway from 2 to 8 November 2015, when British Sausage Week kicks off.

Now in its 18th year, the competition puts the best bangers in the spotlight, encouraging consumers to visit their local catering establishments to sample a sausage treat.

Keith Fisher, butchery development manager for AHDB Pork, said: "British Sausage Week is one of the most hotly anticipated events in the calendar and this year promises to deliver a welcome boost to the sector, thanks to an array of high profile activity. As well as benefiting from the buzz of British Sausage Week, businesses can use the event to launch their own activity; introduce new varieties and recipes, run special offers and themed promotional events or even host a charity event or competition.

How to get involved:

• Hold a sausage tasting event

• Introduce new varieties and flavour combinations - or a competition for customers to submit their ideas

• Share recipe inspiration or introduce new sausage-themed menus

• Make a feature of your quality sausages and/or sourcing policy

• Tweet about #SausageWeek
