Texas Sausages

Homemade sausage is a delicious and affordable solution to use most of the components of pork animal meat. After butchering our pig it is time to make pork sausage. As my hubby had been cutting pork steaks also cuts of chicken I happened to be putting apart chances and ends of chicken animal meat to utilize when you look at the chicken sausage. We slashed these bits of pork beef and fat into about 1 inches cubes.

Next comes the enjoyment part. I develop different tastes of sausage by combining spices and natural herbs. We add salt to my chicken sausages, but if you are on a low sodium diet you can just lower the amount of sodium you utilize or leave it out completely. The best part of creating personal sausage is the ability to control the what enter my sausage. Here is a basic morning meal sausage blend for 12 pounds of sausage.

Sausage Ingredients

6 teaspoons of dried sage

3 ½ teaspoons of newly surface black pepper
