How to Make Homemade Pork Sausage

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 lb ground pork, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1/4 teaspoon sage, 1/4 teaspoon thyme, 1/4 cup milk, and 1/4 cup finely chopped onion.
  2. Gently mix all ingredients until just combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can result in tough patties.
  3. Shape the mixture into eight 4-inch patties.
  4. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  5. Add the patties to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked through (internal temperature reaches 160°F).
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy! These patties are delicious on their own, in sandwiches, or as part of a larger meal.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
