ANSON COUNTY COUNTRY BREAKFAST SAUSAGE

INGREDIENTS:

24 lbs. ground Boston butt
1 lb. ground pork fat
1 tablespoon crushed red pepper (optional)
1 tablespoon rubbed dry sage (use 3 tablespoons for a good 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. 

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.

ANOTHER BATCH OF SAGE PORK SAUSAGE

I did another batch of sage pork sausage today (10-28-2024) which was a little more than 25 pounds; didn't weight, but went by the weight of the Boston butt packages.  I fried four patties from the sausage that was left in the stuffer and the small package in the pix and it was very tasty for sure!
