ANSON COUNTY COUNTRY BREAKFAST SAUSAGE
INGREDIENTS:
20 lbs. ground Boston butt
5 lbs. ground pork fat
1 tablespoon crushed red pepper (optional)
1 tablespoon rubbed dry sage (use 3 tablespoons or more for a sage flavor)
1 quart warm tap water
8 oz. pkg. Legg's Old
Plantation Pork Sausage Seasoning Blend # 10 (no additional salt required)
Grind chilled pork and pork fat using a 3/16 inch diameter
hole plate pattern. It is best to have your meat chilled to about 34
degrees F.
In a large bowl, add seasonings and 1 quart of warm
water and mix well. Add seasoning mix to the ground meat mixture and
mix by hand or use a meat mixer.
Stuff in plastic 1 lb. bags and
secure the end with a 1/2 inch hog ring or sealing tape; or use a 2 3/4 inch x 27 inch
length fibrous casing, yield approximately 5 lbs.; freeze and then cut the
casing into 1 pound size and vacuum seal and place in the freezer.
If you desire, you can add the seasoning mixture to the
meat after the first grind using the 3/8 inch diameter hole plate and regrind the meat and seasonings again
using a 3/16 inch diameter hole plate which will
better distribute the seasonings through out the sausage. Fry a patty
of the sausage and check to see if there is enough red pepper and sage;
adjust as needed. Frozen sausage's spices will mellow out over time
and the spice level needs to be a little on the hot side to begin with.
Package and freeze as soon as possible.
The "secret" to good
country breakfast sausage and venison country sausage is use
enough pork fat.
YIELD: 25 pounds
A FEW PIXS TAKEN
Most of the above pixs are a copy and paste of past
sausage making and I give a better pictorial essay of my sausage making
with my
venison summer sausage recipe page.
I have been doing stuffed sausages of various types
for about three (3) decades, mostly venison summer sausage, but started
doing the venison breakfast sausage and pork country breakfast sausage
several years ago.
I have a short story called
Sausage Making
which describes some of the stuff I have done.
