Default Sausage!

I suppose there are 1000 recipes for homemade sausage out there. Here's another.

To me, sausage should be
1. Easy to make - I'm not willing to stand around with a meat grinder and dozens of odd spices.
2. VERY flavorful - no bland sausage need apply.
3. VERY low fat - no Jimmy Dean, swimming in grease.

Last week while we were camping at Tortilla Flat, AZ, my wife brought out an old favorite. It has only two ingredients.
  • 1 pound of very low fat ground pork (we find 90% lean in our local Safeway)
  • 1 T Penzy's Venison Sausage Seasoning (www.penzys.com) - or a bit more for extra flavor.
That's it. Before we leave home, we mix it up in a bowl, then make it into patties, wrap them in plastic wrap so they are easy to separate, and freeze.

I know, the seasoning says "Venison", and we don't have venison, but the taste is just right. I'll admit, my wife adds a bit of powdered red chili pepper just for me, but many people won't want it.

The patties can be fried as is for breakfast, but because it is so low in fat, a spray of PAM in the frying pan or grill is a good idea. It can also be crumbled on pizza, chunked into spaghetti sauce, or most anything you can think of, and it contributes almost no fat to the total calorie count.

Yum!

Bill

Maybe this link is what you meant? http://www.penzeys.com/cgi-bin/penze...ysvenison.html
Sounds yummy and probably much better for you than that greasy stuff that is premade!

That's it! If you live near one of the Penzy's retail stores, you'll enjoy a trip in.

This sausage sounds like it would go really well in some Zataran's Dirty Rice Mix...try it, I promise you will love the results.

If you're talking spices, we picked up a spice blend called Bad Byron's Buttrub in Grayling. We bought it because we thought the name was funny and we liked their catchphrase, which is "A little Buttrub makes everything better". Well we tried it and the stuff is great, I put it on everything...Fried potatoes, scrambled eggs, popcorn, chicken, beef, pork, fish...I think it's the best seasoning blend ever. You can go to buttrub.com to order from them direct. I've even seen it used on various shows on the cooking channel.
