Do any of you good cooks make your own breakfast sausage?

My sister called this morning. She had been to the Public Market and got 5 lbs.of fresh ground pork. She'd like to make homemade breakfast sausage. Does anyone have a tried and true recipe that they might be willing to share?

Thanks,

FG

I do the same thing.  I just add Morton Sausage and Meatloaf Seasoning Mix.  I use 1-1/2 tsp. of seasoning per pound.  More or less if you prefer  DO NOT add a level tablespoon per ground pound as indicated on the bottle.  It's WAY too much salt.  Also, if she likes more flavor, of say sage, add extra sage (even though it's in the mix already).

Here's one I changed to use 5 lbs of meat so the amounts are right for that but the directions are for 1 lb.  This is tasty sausage!

Hummmmmm, not since Bigmother died, but since i've checked out these recipes, I may have to start making it again especially the sage and maple suryp ones, I have some great Vermont maple syrup that would be oh so good in some. Thanks for the question FG and thanks for the recipes girls.
