Grind Your Own Breakfast Sausage

Breakfast sausage is my second favorite breakfast meat and I always like to have some on hand for a quick meal or a super heavy mountain man breakfast that will set your day off right. You can substitute deer (venison) or elk for the pork butt if you add in 30% pork fat by weight.

Once you've ground the meat, you'll want to save some for another day. I review the best ways to freeze your sausage for different kinds of use.

Recipe - scale this to the amount of meat you have
1000g Pork Butt (2lbs 3oz
15g Salt (2.5tsp)
3g Dried Sage (2 tsp)
2g Black Pepper (1tsp)
1g Ground Nutmeg (1/2tsp)
10g Brown Sugar or maple Sugar (1Tbsp)

The grinder in the freezer is an excellent tip!

A couple of months ago I replaced my fifteen-year-old grinder and bought the LEM Big Bite Dual grind. WOW! What a difference! It saves a lot of time by not having to mince twice. Plus, I have never used the meat pusher, since I cut into strips rather than large chunks. The auger grabs the meat and pulls it into the blades. But if there are chunks the same thing happens, grab and grind all the way! Great advice to keep everything cold too!

What an excellent tip to use already ground meat to push the leftovers through. I watched a video where the presenter used ice cubes, wow, what a mess that was. Thanks!

Good video I’ve been doing sausage for about three years o tell people never put any part of the grinder in the freezer overtime it makes the parts brittle I always put the meat in for about 20 min after each grind

Many thanks. Bought the kitchen aid grinder. I’m sick of sausage with gristle even when you pay top dollar, they just can’t help themselves getting rid of the nasty stuff

Why doesn’t this guy have millions of subscribers? Talentless Mukbang channels have millions. What a strange world we live in, huh?

Rocket surgery, now that’s some serious brain science!

No more difficult than thinking of it as hamburger with seasoning added, except with pork (porkbutt/shoulder). REALLY people, it's THAT no mystical magic about it.

If it’s homemade is it still considered carcinogenic? Thx

way better to make home no garbage fillers and preservatives, nice video.

Damn, I just bought a sausage filler - should have just done this 😋

I'll try this out. Without a scale, are the ingredients heaping spoons or flat/ leveled? I assume flat.

Thanks!
