Description

Try this tasty recipe for a sugar-free, preservative-free homemade breakfast sausage patty. Plan ahead as the patties need to rest overnight in the fridge.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon rubbed sage
1 teaspoon kosher salt, or to taste
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, or to taste
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1 pound ground pork
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Directions

1 Stir sage, salt, parsley, red pepper, fennel, black pepper, smoked paprika, coriander, and thyme together in a small bowl.
2 Place ground pork in a bowl, add seasoning mix, and mix well using your hands until all ingredients are evenly distributed. Form into a roll about 2 inches in diameter and 6 inches long. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 8 hours, or up to 24 hours.
3 Clean and preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
4 Slice seasoned pork into twelve 1/2-inch thick patties.
5 Place patties onto the hot grate. Close lid and allow to cook for 1 1/2 minutes. Rotate each patty 90 degrees and continue grilling for 1 1/2 minutes at a time, until juices run clear, 6 minutes total. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
