Why is summer sausage called summer sausage?

it was made in the summer and ferments until it gets the tangy taste... which is just about winter time around the holidays... and makes for great tasting cracker snacks during the family get togethers.

Is it because the taste reminds you of the summer? or is made in the summer time? I have no clue

It is called summer sausage due to the fact that it doesn't need to be kept cold, which was great before refrigeration came along.

I hope this helps. Good luck!

Because it's in the summer they stuff the intestine of choice with the ground up animal muscle, organ, or filing. . Then it's cured and is ready to serve around Christmas. .. not really,

it's because itv doesn't require refrigerating after it's open and that's it.

Heres a little tip, bake summer sausage in the oven and serve it with white rice.

Very tasty, especially with fresh tomatoes, green/red peppers, lettuce.

mmm

I think it is because it is the American version of a Salami and I am sure it is delicious.

As you know, like salami it doesn't require refrigeration so it make an ideal cold meat to have around as the temperatures rise.

summer sausage is called so because summer the ingredients come from animal by-products, summer the ingredients come from used and reconstituted pizza box scrapings, but most of the ingredients come from sundried roadkill.

you don't have to put it in the refrigerator and the thaw and cook.

because winter ham and spring chicken have already been taken.
