MENNONITE FARMER SAUSAGE
This is the recipe we got from my uncle when we wanted to make our own sausage. We discovered that making sausage was a bit more work than we were interested in -- especially since we had to rent shop space and use equipment we weren't really familiar with -- so we decided to leave it up to our butcher. Since he's also started using this recipe, we still get the same great sausage -- at a slightly higher price, yes, but with a lot less work! (I haven't included the time it takes to stuff casings because that will be different for everyone.) **Edited Sep07/06: I forgot to indicate in the intial post that this sausage gets smoked for 3-4 hours after it's in the casings. Without the smoking, it won't be farmer sausage, so it's a pretty key step!!!

BAKED FARMER SAUSAGE, POTATOES, AND CARROTS WITH GRAVY
This used to be the traditional Mennonite Sunday lunch at our house -- it has since become more likely at supper, but it's just as traditional and just as delicious! I'm not sure where farmer sausage is all available or whether it's one of those local specialties just available in Manitoba, so I've posted a recipe for that as well for those of you who make your own sausages. (#184513) If you can't buy it nearby or make it yourself, I'm terribly sorry -- you're definitely missing out! This recipe is for those of you who can.

Steps:
- If desired, peel frozen farmer sausage. (The best way is to hold it under a trickle of warm water.) Break sausage into 4-6 chunks.
- Place potatoes and carrots into a roaster or large casserole dish. Add water to cover the bottom of the dish.
- Place frozen sausage chunks over top (so drippings will flavour the vegetables), cover, and bake at 375F for 1-1/2 hours.
- Remove from oven and drain juices from casserole dish into a saucepan. (You may want to put the sausage and vegetables in a serving dish now and keep warm in the oven.).
- For gravy: Mix flour and milk together, adding milk gradually so a paste forms and slowly gets thicker -- you don't want lumps! (Actually, a Tupperware gravy shaker works best for this. You can just throw it all together and shake it up without worrying about lumps at all.).
- Add milk mixture to drippings and bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until gravy is thickened. (Depending on how much water content your sausage had, you may need to add a little more flour or milk to achieve the desired thickness.).
- Add salt and pepper to taste and serve.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality pork: Use a combination of fatty and lean pork for the best flavor and texture. Freshly ground pork is ideal, but you can also use pre-ground pork if necessary.
- Season the sausage well: Use a generous amount of spices and herbs to flavor the sausage. Common seasonings include salt, pepper, garlic, sage, thyme, and fennel. You can also add other spices to your liking, such as paprika, cumin, or chili powder.
- Mix the sausage thoroughly: Make sure the spices and herbs are evenly distributed throughout the sausage mixture. This will help to ensure that each bite is flavorful.
- Stuff the sausage casings tightly: Use a sausage stuffer or a piping bag to stuff the sausage casings. Make sure the casings are not too loose, or the sausage will not hold its shape when cooked.
- Cook the sausage slowly: Cook the sausage over low heat until it is cooked through. This will help to prevent the sausage from drying out.
Conclusion:
Homemade farmer's sausage is a delicious and versatile sausage that can be used in a variety of dishes. It is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. You can also use it to make sandwiches, soups, and stews. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make your own homemade farmer's sausage at home.
