    How to Make Breakfast Sausage Seasoning

    • In a small bowl, combine all of the ingredients and whisk until blended.
    • Mix the spice blend with 5 lbs of uncooked ground pork or turkey. 
    • Store this breakfast sausage seasoning in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 months. 

    Is There A Difference Between Breakfast Sausage And Regular Sausage?

    Some types of breakfast sausages are smaller in size when compared to other sausages. Many of the spices used to make breakfast sausage are different from the spices used to make Italian sausage, Polish sausage, and German sausages. As an example, Italian sausage features fennel as a seasoning and Polish sausage typically includes marjoram and fresh garlic.

    Tips and Tricks

    • This seasoning can also be used to add flavor to poultry and other meats. Try it sprinkled on potatoes or sautéed veggies!
    • If you’re watching your sodium intake, reduce the amount of salt and replace it with a salt-free spice of your choice.   

    How Do I Make The Perfect Breakfast Sausage?

    Breakfast sausage can be served as a link or as a patty. Fry the sausage in a bit of oil for about 3-5 minutes until brown on all sides. The best way to check for doneness is to use an instant-read thermometer. Pork sausage is done when the internal temperature reaches 155°F.
