What makes German sausages different from regular sausages?
German sausages often follow centuries-old recipes and traditional curing, smoking or boiling methods. They feature unique spice blends and meats, such as veal or pork, and tend to avoid heavy seasoning or artificial fillers. Varieties like bratwurst, kransky and bockwurst are known for their strong flavour profiles and are commonly smoked or boiled rather than grilled. Compared to many Western-style sausages, German versions prioritise natural flavour, texture and quality.
Are kranskys and bratwurst the same thing?
No—kranskys and bratwurst are two different types of German sausage. Kranskys are typically smoked and have a firm, slightly spicy profile, often available in cheese or chilli variations. Bratwurst, on the other hand, are usually milder, made with veal or pork, and traditionally grilled or pan-fried. Each has a distinct texture, preparation method and flavour, making them suitable for different dishes and preferences.
Are German sausages suitable for people avoiding additives?
Yes—many traditional German sausages are made without additives, preservatives or artificial colours, particularly those made by small-scale butchers or specialty shops. If you're shopping for sausages with no gluten, MSG or fillers, check the ingredient list or ask in-store. Many continental butchers pride themselves on offering cleaner, more natural options compared to mass-produced alternatives.
