The Season’s Best Holiday Hors d’oeuvre
Hello, Mustard Merchants, Mustard Mavens, and All who live and like the spicy and savory side of life,
Buzz Savories features the Season’s best Hors d’oeuvre – Sausage Bites with Spicy Beer, Creamy Mustard Dipping Sauce – These meaty and saucy morsels will delight you and your guests. From experience, I advise you to double this recipe because they disappear fast.
Sausage Bites with a creamy Spicy Beer Mustard dipping sauce takes only minutes of time to construct an appetizing and colorful Hors d’eourve Board.
Pickles compliment the sausages – both sweet and dill, and I recommend “Pickles with a Purpose” sold at Rustic and Red in Cozad, NE. I like them for their crunch with heat. I like dill pickle spears too. Celery and carrot sticks add color and easy dipping.
Grapes look alive on the hors d’oeuvre board, and clusters of red and green grapes add color and bursts of flavor that also compliment a crispy browned sausage bite.
Throw on crackers of your choice and a cheddar cheese. Serve with soda, wine, your favorite craft beer, a fizzy water, a cocktail from yesteryear.
Sausage Bites with a Spicy Beer Creamy Mustard Dipping Sauce star in this show, and the delicious combo offers you an opportunity to keep it simple yet guests will rave.
I cooked a more hearty recipe made with steak tips instead of sausage bites – Garlic Butter and Mustard Steak Tips.
A Lincoln, Nebraska Buzz Savories mustard fan notified me of this recipe that was published in the November 11, 2020 Omaha World Herald in the Savor Section.
See the steak tips recipe at The Fancy Rancher and read their Nebraska origin story featuring Certified Piedmontese grass-fed beef and meet Chef Jordan Reed.
The Sausage Bites with Creamy Spicy Beer Mustard Dipping Sauce recipe follows but before you go there, consider honey, a prominent ingredient of Buzz Savories mustards and produced by honey bees in our Plate River Valley apiary.
Honey Bee Facts
Who lives in a bee hive?
- the hive members consist of one queen bee, meaning an especially bred and fertilized egg-laying female bee
- her daughters, 6,000 or more worker bees, all related as sisters
- approximately 100 drones, male honey bees living in the hive during the summer with one purpose – to fertilize virgin queens that appear in their flight region. Drones do no work in the hive, and are kicked out in the winter and die.
