What can be substituted for Portugese Chourico?!


Question: I'm making paella that calls for Portugese Chourico and I cannot find it anywhere.
Is there something else I can substitute for it?
I also looked for chourizo and couldn't find it, so that's not an option, either.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

You can use any of the Spanish sausage available, or see if they sell Portuguese Linguica. Thats what I always use anyways because I like the taste of the linguica better. If your local grocery store doesn't carry those items, ask the butcher there where you could find it.

i"m sorry but you must be looking in the wrong places

Any type of pork sausage which has garlic. Try a local meat shop.

Hope this helps. Happy cooking
