?
In my opinion the Silva Linguica is the best.? There seems to be less fat.? 
I've never heard of Goulart's, Barcelos or Fernandes.? I don't like Santo's.? I 
guess the taste of Silva's is what I remember as a child.? I don't remember 
what brand my mom bought those many years ago.
?
Where are the other brands sold?? I live in the Foothills near Sacramento.? I'd 
like to try the other brands just to compare.
?
We raise our own pigs but never looked into finding someone who would make 
linguica.? Do any of you living near Sacramento know a butcher in our area that 
would make it?? Might be worth a try next time.

 ?I don't think there's any chance of getting a recipe for the Santos, but a 
news article from 1999 stated this:

"a good recipe from the old country." Pia's original recipe is used. The 
linguisa and morcella have never contained preservatives and are made daily 
from fresh corn- fed pork.
 

?The linguisa-making technique is the same as his great-grandmother's;?


? the pork is cut, ground and marinated before being stuffed into natural 
casings and smoked with oak for 12 hours in two 8-foot- by-15-foot smokers.
 

As I remember it, medium ground ?red pepper, garlic, red wine vinegar were the 
main flavorings.


Seems to me some other manufacturers use ? black pepper, cinnamon, allspice, 
oregano, sugar, red or white wine.?

Do you mean, Santos or Coast sausage owned by the Gonsalves family? Or maybe 
Moniz, that's just across the San Leandro border.

  I agree in California the best is Goulart's. ?Our favorite is no longer 
available. ?It was made in San Leandro but they went out of business when the 
FDA made them change the temperature it was smoked. ?They ruined a family

like linguica.   It is good but milder.

Here's an article on the taste differences of Hawaiian linguica type 
sausages?http://tastyislandhawaii.com/2007/05/13/the-great-portuguese-sausage-shootout/
    

I'm working on a family project for the granddaughter of Frank Redondo, founder 
in 1949 of the Redondo Brand. It has been sold to a large Japanese company that 
continues production under that name.
    

Here is an article about the taste off between Fernandes Vs 
Barcelos.?http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/675793


   It seems some of the Hawaiian brands use some beef in theirs.?
 

My opinion is that producers use pork, spice and smoke in different amounts, so 
the there are more differences in between different makers, than between 
regions. The size of the grind is a factor too.
    

Here in California, I expect it to be large chunks of pork shoulder, garlic, 
paprika, vinegar, lightly smoke cured. I rate Goulart's regular the best. 
Silva's , Barcelos, and Fernandes to be avoided for lack of flavor.

    This dialog is not about who has the best linguica - we all have different 
tastes, etc.
   ?
 I was at my Sam's Club this week buying linguica, but they had along side the 
Portuguese linguica, an Hawaiian linguica; I notice?it's larger around than the 
Portuguese linguica.? My question - does Hawaiian linguica taste different and, 
if so, how...is it spicer, hotter, milder, the same??? I want to buy some next 
time I go but I do not like real hot foods.? 
     ?
Thanks
