Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the sausage mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, ground lamb, minced garlic, orange zest, crushed fennel seeds, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

  2. 2

    Add the red wine

    Slowly add the red wine to the meat mixture, stirring continuously until the mixture is well blended and the wine is absorbed.

  3. 3

    Stuff the casings

    Rinse the soaked pork casings thoroughly. Using a sausage stuffer, carefully stuff the casings with the sausage mixture, being careful not to overstuff. Tie off the ends of the sausages with kitchen twine.

  4. 4

    Preheat the grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  5. 5

    Grill the sausages

    Place the sausages on the grill and cook for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally until they are browned and cooked through.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove the sausages from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve hot with pita bread, grilled vegetables, or your favorite dipping sauce.
