What is the difference between breakfast sausage and other sausages?

Answer 1

breakfast:

English, Scottish and Welsh sausages, or bangers (so nicknamed since the Second World War for their tendency to explode during cooking if made with too much water), for example, normally have a significant amount of rusk, or bread crumbs, and are less meaty than sausages in other styles. Bangers are also used to make toad in the hole. They are an essential part of a full English breakfast, and are usually offered with an Irish breakfast. According to Sausagefans.com, in Britain alone there are over 470 different types of sausages. The British sausage was once the butt of a joke on Yes Minister, where it was to be renamed by European Union directive on all labels as the "Low Density, High Fat, Emulsified Offal Tube." Trading standards did actually try to alter the name of a Welsh sausage in 2006.[3] In some areas "sausage meat" for frying is sold as slices cut from an oblong block of pressed meat without any casing: in Scotland this is known as Lorne Sausage or often slice or square while the usual form is sometimes called link sausage.
North American breakfast sausage consists of uncooked ground pork, mixed with sage, pepper, or other ingredients. It is not generally not stuffed into casings, though a variant sold in links which may have a protein casing are common, and is generally sold in plastic wrapping. It is pan-fried in small patties, or cooked and crumbled into scrambled eggs or gravy.

other:

Cooked sausages are made with fresh meats and then fully cooked. They are either eaten immediately after cooking or must be refrigerated. Examples include Braunschweiger and liver sausages.
Cooked smoked sausages are cooked and then smoked or smoke-cooked. They are eaten hot or cold, but need to be refrigerated. Examples include Hot dogs, kielbasa and Mortadella.
Fresh sausages are made from meats that have not been previously cured. They must be refrigerated and thoroughly cooked before eating. Examples include Boerewors, Italian pork sausage and fresh beef sausage.
Fresh smoked sausages are fresh sausages that are smoked. They should be refrigerated and cooked thoroughly before eating. Examples include Mettwurst and Romanian sausage.
Dry sausages are fresh sausages that are dried. They are generally eaten cold and will keep for a long time. Examples include salami, Droë wors, Sucuk and summer sausage.
Other countries, however, use different systems of classification. Germany, for instance, which boasts more than 1200 types of sausage, distinguishes raw, cooked and pre-cooked sausages.

Raw sausages are made with raw meat and are not cooked. They are preserved by lactic fermentation, and may be dried, brined or smoked. Most raw sausages will keep for a long time. Examples include cervelat, mettwurst and salami.
Cooked sausages may include water and emulsifiers and are always cooked. They will not keep long. Examples include Jagdwurst and Weißwurst.
Pre-cooked sausages are made with cooked meat, and may include raw organ meat. They may be heated after casing, and will keep only for a few days. Examples include Saumagen and Blutwurst.

Answer 6

aside from size, breakfast sausages are much smaller and take far less time than Brautwurst, Keilbasa and Italian links, the seasons are also different.

Because of their level of pepper and spice, breakfast sausage usually accompanies foods that are usually bland with indistinct individual tastes (eggs, potatoes, toast) while the other sausages above are part of a hearty, balanced meal.
