sausaged

1. 1
   verb

   Simple past and past participle of sausage.

   He had sausaged himself into a wetsuit two sizes too small.

   The leftover venison was sausaged and frozen for the winter.

   Note

   Many uses are figurative: someone sausaged into a wetsuit or a dress fits it the way meat fits its skin, and with on the verb describes getting into the snug garment itself. In the kitchen it is literal, when meat or an animal has been sausaged and smoked.

2. 2
   adjective

   Topped with sausage, or served together with it.

   The diner's sausaged breakfast biscuits sell out early every Saturday.

   The stew can be left meatless for vegetarians or generously sausaged for everyone else.

   Note

   The adjective is gradable, so a dish can be lightly or heavily sausaged: Beth Kohl's Embryo Culture compares ultrasound blobs to an overly sausaged pizza, and Theresa Albert offers a meal that can be completely vegan or sausaged to the nines. It also covers sausage served alongside, as in a sausaged egg.
