link sausage

Connected pork segments

Link sausage is sausage formed into individual cylindrical segments, as opposed to a continuous coil or loose ground meat sold in bulk.

The links are typically twisted or tied off at intervals, creating the familiar chain of connected portions: breakfast link sausages, a string of Italian links on the grill.

The term distinguishes the format rather than a particular flavor or meat.
