Hi Steve, it's not the normal thing for them and agreed the pictures
don't show it often, but there's nothing intrinsically wrong with it if
served soon.

A popular local place here does them with coleslaw which I like better.
It's a rich creamy and savory, mustardy one (no sugar that you can tell
but lots of onions). You can also get the slaw on the side and it
makes a wonderful contrast to the hot sausage with the cold slaw.
