This recipe spiced up boring breakfast sausage when I spent summers cooking three daily meals for my father and his crew. Lamb can also be used in place of the pork.
This was awesome. I made some for supper one night. The kids thought it was a little spicy, but the hubby loved it! I'm fixing some for him to take to work and share with the gang!
Read MoreI reduced the amount spices, as suggested by other reviewers, and used a food processor to mix the ingredients together in the morning; allowing the sausage to 'cure' until evening before using it in Tanya Belt's recipe for Ranchers Beans, also posted on AllRecipes.com. The best thing about this recipe is that I can control the fat and salt content.

This was a quick easy recipe. The cumin was a little over powering so I will use less next time.
The recipe was fine. I experimented with it to satisfy a taste for less pepper and by adding a tsp of corriandar and a tbs chili powder it makes a fair chorizo. I added a little sage and dropped the cumin and reduced the pepper for my wife who doesn't like it spicy. Basically I made a batch leaving out the red pepper and cumin, split it into 4 parts, added the cumin and pepper back into 1; added the cumin, oregano, red pepper and chil powder into 1, added sage into one and voila, sausage to suit everyone.
I really liked this recipe, but thought it needed something a little more to make it a 5 star so I rating it a 4 star.
I as others decreased the amount of cumin I used only 1 Tbs I also added about 2 Tbs onion and to round out the flavor I added 1 1/2 Tbs light brown sugar as for the salt I used 1 Tsp. This made a spicy sausage that still had a very distinct taste of cumin but we like cumin at our house
Instead of forming into patties I crumbled this so that I could make breakfast burritos. Honestly when I first saw this recipe I was like why not just buy spicy sausage? I suppose you still could BUT the addition of cumin puts this one over the top. It was a little potent and maybe overbearing to some some but it was the perfect balance for me. Great recipe! Thanks for sharing!
I MAKE THIS SAME RECIPE BUT USE BOB EVANS HOT SAUSAGE (IN TUBE). AWSOME WHEN YOU HAVE A LOT OF GUESTS TO FEED.
I had a bunch of ground cumin to use up, and ran across this recipe. I made it exactly as written, and I found it to be pretty tasty. I had half of it (2 patties) for breakfast, and the other half for lunch - when I gobble a recipe down, it's always a good sign. It's quick and easy, and I think I'll make this again soon. I'm sure it could be better, but still I think it merits a 4-star rating. Thanks for a great recipe!
