How to Make Homemade Breakfast Sausage
- In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons dried sage, 4 tablespoons salt, 2 tablespoons black pepper, 1 tablespoon marjoram, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, and 1 teaspoon ground cloves. Mix thoroughly.
- In a large bowl, place 9 pounds of ground pork.
- Add the spice mixture to the ground pork.
- Gently mix with your hands until evenly combined. Form the mixture into 9 oblong rolls (approximately 1 pound each).
- Wrap each roll tightly in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight for enhanced flavor).
- Once chilled, slice the sausage rolls into 1/2-inch thick patties.
- Cook the sausage patties in a skillet over medium heat for 8-10 minutes per side, or until cooked through and browned. Alternatively, grill until cooked through.
- Before serving, test a cooked patty for seasoning and adjust if needed. Serve hot and enjoy!
