A variety of sausages that satisfies (8)
I believe the answer is:
assuages
'satisfies' is the definition.
(assuaging is a kind of satisfying)
'a variety of sausages' is the wordplay.
'a variety of' indicates anagramming the letters.
'sausages' is an anagram of 'ASSUAGES'.
'that' is the link.
(Other definitions for assuages that I've seen before include "Soothes with sausages" , "provides relief" , "Makes something less severe, pain say" , "Satisfies an appetite or desires" .)
