Default Breakfast Sausage

So I know there are past threads on this but I'm looking for other hunters personal experiences. I want to try a recipe for Maple Breakfast Sausage or something similar with geese. Whats your favorite that you have tried? Appreciate any pointers.

Our Go-To:

Maple Breakfast Sausage Recipe

10 lbs venison
8 lbs fatty pork
2 lbs Maple Cured Bacon
4 tablespoons dried thyme
4 tablespoons dried marjoram
4 tablespoons kosher salt
2 - 3 tablespoons rubbed sage
8 tablespoons fine ground black pepper
1 cup ice water
2 cups real maple syrup

1. Grind the venison and pork through the Medium plate of your grinder.
2. Grind the bacon through the Fine plate of your grinder (better mixing)
2. Combine the spices in a small container and mix with the ice water – let sit long enough to dissolve the salt, then add the maple syrup and mix well again.

4. Once the sausage is fully mixed, stuff it immediately into 22 - 24 mm casings.

Thanks this sounds good. You find the 50/0 mix takes away from the venison flavour at all?

Doing up a batch of the English Pork Breakfast sausage out of The Best of Wurst as we speak. About the best breakfast sausage I've had.
Lately I make patties rather than stuffing it. Easier as well as handier to pull one out of the freezer and throw in the fry pan

Default skip the casing

We did a mess of breakfast sausage patties for sandwiches, eggs benny etc. We used the recipe off meateater and it was pretty spot on. We freeze them in 1/5 or 1/6 lb patties in packs of 6 and it's perfect. they fry up and grill well.

use more pepper and fresh herbs for the best flavour.

Default best of wurst

I am going to make Country style pork sausage from the best of wurst. Very similar to breakfast sausages. This book contains 5 or 6 pork/breakfast sausage recipes. Excellent reference. I might even try the English style as Mountain is making. BEL

I've made them all and not one disappointed but my favorite is the Southern Style Pork Sausage.

The next recipe I'm going to try is Iron Noggins.
