Best 3 Old Folks Sausage Recipes

GRANNY'S OLD FASHIONED PORK SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Trim any excess fat from the pork and cut into chunks. Place the meat through a meat grinder. Combine the ground meet and remaining ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Shape the sausage into patties. The sausage can be cooked immediately but for best flavor wrap the sausage patties in plastic wrap and freeze for 1-2 weeks. Thaw before cooking.

CLASSIC SAUSAGE STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚. Butter a 3-quart baking dish. Melt 6 tablespoons butter in a large wide pot over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking up the meat, until no longer pink, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the onions, celery, sage and thyme and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the chicken broth, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Bring to a boil, then remove from the heat.
• Whisk the eggs and parsley in a large bowl. Add the bread cubes and sausage-broth mixture and toss until evenly combined. Transfer to the prepared baking dish, dot with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and cover with foil.
• Bake the stuffing until hot, about 30 minutes. Uncover and bake until golden brown, 20 to 30 minutes. Let cool at least 15 minutes before serving.
