Someone has been kind (?) enough to gift me with something called a dan doodle (dandoodle?). It appears to be some type of sausage with a distinctive smell. Also, it was shipped in a regular box, no dry ice, nothing thermal or refrigerated.

I've looked online and I see that it is sometimes boiled, or sliced and fried. Sometimes cooked with collard greens or beans. Does anyone have experience with this? I can't tell if it's already cooked or not.

I'm askeert.

Looks kinda similar to a ponce or chaudin.

Is the distinctive smell shite? It's shite, isn't it? I'd have to be out.

If the distinctive smell isn't shite, though, I'd be tempted to season that thing well and brown the hell out of it in a black iron pot and make a rice and gravy with it.

Will likely give them a call, but I do see some things online. None of them look appealing, but I know visitors don't always think boudin looks appealing.

It doesn't smell like shite, but it doesn't smell familiar, so I don't know what the smell is. I mean, it smells like shite, just not feces.

It seems to also go by the name of Tom Thumb sausage.

Here's a recipe with pics.

Tom Thumb sausage recipe

Looks like something MD would make, along with his grandmother's cornbread recipe. Maybe I'll ship it to him!

That picture of it sliced next to the cabbage makes me even more sure. Rice and gravy!

The sage may make it more like a breakfast sausage, though.

Did you read the Safe Handling Instructions? Keep refrigerated. I'm a little scared of that thing if it's cold and fresh. No frickin way I'd cook that.

Wait. That thing's not smoked or cured? I've had Benton's bacon delivered before and left on the front porch in August with no ice, but that stuff is so heavily smoked and cured you can smell it through the plastic packaging. Hell, they even include a little card assuring you that the meat is fully preserved and requires no refrigeration. I see that thing has the exact opposite now that I'm paying attention.



I don't read so good. I just assumed it was fresh and/or smoked.

That's what I'd like to do, but I know they're going to ask me how I cooked it and whether or not I liked it.

Unless the guy who sent it to you either has a grudge against you or is a real clown I would certainly cook it. I agree it is something like MD would cook. maybe see if you can get his input. Calling the meat market that packed it is a good idea though.

If you're still scared then find a royal taster. Someone like an Ed Orgeron. He's not such a bright guy and surely would be willing to try it for you.

I only buy smoked ponce so the only smell it has is a smoked sausage type smell.
