This turned out very well! Having never made summer sausage I was a little concerned. The flavor is perfect and it was a huge hit with my husband and his hunter buddies! Read More

I had to find a recipe to use up some elk meat from last hunting season, and came across this summer sausage recipe. The only thing I did different is bake the sausage at about 250 degrees for about 3 hours. It came out pretty tasty, and was a good way to use up some of that meat! Read More

I adjusted this recipe to make breakfast sausage. I only had ground pork sausage so I just used less of all the ingredients. Didn't have onion salt so I added my own salt in the form of kosher salt and added Italian seasoning and fennel (my favorite part of sausage hands down) then fried up for breakfast. I didn't let it sit for 4 days since I determined I wanted sausage this morning so I'll try that next time but this was good and very easy. Thanks for the recipe! Read More
