I get a kick out of learning how to 'Make my own' anything. I hope this one comes in handy for you. My family loves this sausage with pancakes and more maple syrup for breakfast. It also works very nicely in sausage and egg breakfast burritos. Read more . I've tried using maple flavored syrup and imitation maple flavoring in this recipe, and it just doesn't turn out nearly as well. Use the real thing if at all possible.
Ingredients:
5 lbs 80% lean boneless pork shoulder
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon fine ground black pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons rubbed sage
1 very finely chopped large onion
1/2 cup real maple syrup
1/2 cup ice water
Directions:
1. Trim the pork, cut it into 1 inch cubes, and grind it through the fine plate of your meat grinder.
2. Mix the spices with the ice water
3. Combine the spices and onions and maple syrup with the ground meat and mix very thoroughly for at least 2 minutes
4. Stuff into small sheep casings, 3/4 inch collagen casings, or make into patties.
5. Like all other fresh sausages, this recipe needs to be cooled as soon as it is done. It can be kept in the refrigerator for 2-3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
