    Chorizo is a pork sausage made with the scrap ends of the pig after the legs and loins had been removed for salting. The head, tail and everything in between would have been boiled in a huge cauldron over an open fire, then the chunks of meat were cut into small pieces, spiced put into the animals intestine as its casing and then cured.

    depends on the butcher. each butcher uses different parts of the pig. ask your butcher what part he/she uses.
