Sliced oriental beef sausage hitting a hot pan with onions, green peppers and tomatoes, the spices filling the kitchen, then everything stuffed into a crusty baladi loaf. Alexandrian sausage sandwiches are a national treasure, and they taste better when you know what is in the sausage.
Our oriental sausage, the Egyptian cousin of soujouk, is Balady beef, freshly minced and blended with a bold, carefully balanced mix of spices. It cooks into a juicy, deeply savory bite that stands up to peppers, onions and a squeeze of lemon.
How Our Sausage Is Made
We make it from our own Balady beef with our butchers’ spice recipe, then freeze it immediately after making. Freezing keeps it fresh naturally, so it needs no nitrates or chemical preservatives.
How to Cook Oriental Sausage
Slice it into pieces and sauté in a hot pan with onions, garlic, green and colored peppers and chopped tomatoes until browned, about 8 to 10 minutes. Finish with a little cumin and lemon. Serve in baladi or fino bread, or over pasta. It is also great grilled whole over charcoal.
Why Farm House Sausage
Our sausage begins with Balady calves raised naturally on our own farm for about 400 days, with zero hormones and zero chemicals. Each batch is spiced and filled by our team with no bare hand contact, then frozen immediately.
The Alexandrian sausage sandwich, made at home, with beef you trust. Your weekend dinner just got serious.
Alexandria at home: pair it with fresh beef liver for a kebda and sausage sandwich spread, and keep Dawood Pasha meatballs and beef hot dogs in the freezer for quick dinners. For a spicier grill, try our merguez sausage.
