Not what we remembered
Just came back to the UK after 3 years abroad. These sausages used to be our old favourites so was looking forward to having them again, but they've changed the recipe and ruined it. Massive disappointment. Cheap and processed tasting full of fillers and plasticcy sticky skin. I'd pay more for decent sausages. Not buying again unless they bring back the old recipe.
Skin woes seem to have been fixed...
A big improvement has been made in the recent past as these now have a much nicer skin. You can disregard the previous reports of a really tough skin. Maybe Tesco have listened to the feedback?
Juicy and delicious
Very juicy and succulent cooked up lovely under the grill and not a chewy skin in sight. The most off putting thing usually these are delicious and my family all approve
A once excellent sausage ruined and down-graded.
Tesco's finest sausages were a regular treat, we ate them at least once a fortnight and often every week, but they have changed the recipe for the filing and started using alginate casings right across the range. They are, essentially, no longer a traditional sausage and have more in common with the budget frozen brands that sell for half the price. There is absolutely no reason to swap from a natural casing to alginate other than cost. I no longer buy them and resent Tesco's attitude that we, the customers, will just go along with a sneaky reduction in quality but not price.
Best sausages ever thick and juicy 😋

Why change a winning recipe
Absolutely rank. Disgusting. Had a great recipe. Changed to gluten free. When there is a gluten free Isle catered for. Forcing the gluten free on those that don't want gluten free. Product binned. Wasted money was really looking forward. Whats Next ? removing all the fish/meat products and force everyone to be vegetarian. Bring back the old tesco finest brand.. with the option of gluten free version to those who may want.
Horrible skins
We have been buying these sausages for a number of years and we have always enjoyed them, until recently. We noticed that the skins have become thick and 'slimy', and difficult to remove. On reading the ingredients list we see that they now have alginate casings, but in our opinion this has really spoiled them. We won't be buying them again which is a shame, as the sausage meat itself is lovely.
Very disappointed that the recipe has changed. I h
Very disappointed that the recipe has changed. I have bought these sausages for years but unlikely to be buying them again. Why change such a good product?!
What were you thinking?!
Horrible texture. Horrible taste. Ended up as dog food. What use to be a family favourite, left us all checking the dates thinking the product had gone off.
Vile
Used to be our favourites - until you messed about with the recipe. Inedible. I've had to throw them out.
