For something different I tried making my own breakfast sausage this evening. I had some last weekend from grass fed pork, was the best I have ever had. So decided to try making my own.
Got a very basic grind, with two plates (grinding disks?), used the one with the larger holes, probably about 1/4" or so. Started with a 5 lb bone in pork shoulder. Ground in once, found a recipe from Alton Brown for three lbs and used that. As I was mixing in the spices, I thought it was too much spice to pork, but after frying some, the family thought it could have used some more seasonings.
Anybody got a recipe they really like and won't mind sharing? Guess this batch will last about a month, then going to try it again.
