    Breakfast Sausage First Attempt

    I scored a KA Stand Mixer for cheap. Bought the metal food grinder. Had some frozen pork loin and pork belly. Hmmmm...what to do? Make some breakfast sausage. I looked through here for some recipes and used a little bit from here and a little bit from there. I'm a HUGE fan of maple syrup. Unfortunately, I can't source anything besides amber grade here and I prefer the stronger flavor. So I'll just be drizzling some amber syrup on top of these at the table.

    Here's the recipe I bodged together.

    1# raw pork belly
    4# pork tenderloin roast (the little fat left on)
    1 tbsp black pepper
    1-1/2 tbsp kosher salt
    2-1/2 tsp fennel seeds (crushed)
    1 tbsp dried ground sage
    2 tbsp garlic powder
    2 tbsp onion powder
    2 tbsp Simon/Garfunkel rub
    1 tsp smoked paprika
    1 tsp cayenne pepper
    1 tbsp brown sugar

    The next batch I will use a 4# shoulder and 1# belly. The fat content could be just a little higher but still very good. Also may up the brown sugar to 2 tbsp. Also might up the heat a little too.

    First grind was with the KA coarse plate and a second grind with the medium plate.

    I really like the flavor profile you're going for there. Yum!

      Smoked paprika is a great touch! How did you use the ground pork mix—patties, stuffed in casings? Looks great.

        It’s been close to a decade since I last made breakfast sausage. Looks like you’re off to a great start, and have provided me with some inspiration to give it another shot.

          I've made some small batches without a grinder. Recipe looks great. My only comment on the brown sugar, too much will take it in the wrong direction. Just my taste and 2 cents. I love the sage flavoring.

            I portioned into 1# vac bags. I'll form patties or make sausage gravy when thawed for breakfast. Thanks.

              Interesting take on the brown sugar. You may be right. Especially since I like to drizzle with real maple syrup. Thanks.
