So, why is chorizo so greasy? Because it's supposed to be. It's a fatty sausage loaded with oily spices. The grease is the reward for being brave enough to cook it.
It's a messy, loud, flavorful mess. That's why we love it. It's the rebel of the meat world. It doesn't apologize for its grease. It wears it like a badge of honor. A very delicious, very shiny badge.
Now go fry some chorizo. Let the grease flow. Your taste buds will thank you. Your napkins will weep. And you'll understand why this topic is just fun to talk about. We are all just children playing with greasy, spicy toys.
