This simple homemade breakfast sausage recipe is great for people worried about what ingredients are in their sausage! It’s fresh, easy and delicious! The recipe is cheaper if you can grind your own pork, but if you’d rather not, or don’t have a meat grinder, you can buy pork already ground to make your own sausage!
If you want to grind your own meat, a stand mixer attachment like this works great! Just make sure that your meat is super cold (almost frozen) before grinding.
I like to use this sausage in breakfast tacos and homemade sausage gravy!
