What To Do With Leftovers

These sausages are best eaten straight after cooking, but you can also save leftovers for later.

Storing: Store leftovers in the fridge in an air tight container for up to 4 days.
Freezing: Freeze leftovers for up to 3 months.
Reheating in the air fryer: Slice 1 inch thick and air fry 1-2 minutes at 400℉ (200℃), or reheatwhole 3-5 minutes at 360℉ (180℃).
Reheating stove top: Slice 1 inch thick and cook in butter or oil until heated through.
Make a hash: Leftover sausage is best made into a hash, especially if you also have leftover potatoes. Cut sausage and potatoes into pieces and cook stove-top until heated through. If using raw potatoes, cook them until done before adding the sausage. You can also add other ingredients such as onions or bell peppers for extra flavor.
