If I’ve understood it correctly from various cooking shows and televisionshows, you lads refer to minced pork as sausage. Like, you make sausage-pattys for breakfast sandwiches etc. And at the same time, you are also refering to the long tube-cased meatfilled dish as sausages and also sometimes a hotdogs?
What gives? What is the line between a sausage and hotdog? Is a bratwurst a hotdog or a sausage? Can other minced meats also be sausage, or just pork? What if you have a 50/50 beef/pork mix, is that sausage meat or just meat?
As a man from scandinavia, I’ve wondered this for too long!

Just minced pork will never be sausage.
A hot dog is a specific kind of sausage

This is what sausage means. Well, technically the casing is optional, but it must be a meat tube. However, a sausage that is cut up is still a sausage.
A hotdog is a kind of sausage.
Breakfast sausage is its own thing, typically made of sausage stock so I believe that’s how it gets that name.
Here tube casing is usually what you consider a sausage like bratwurst or chicken sausage and the like.
