Homemade Breakfast Sausage

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs ground pork
  • 2 Tbsp dark brown sugar
  • 2 tsp rubbed sage
  • 2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • Pinch crushed red pepper flakes
  • 2 Tbsp unsaled butter

Instructions

  1. Place the pork in a large bowl and add the brown sugar, sage, salt, garlic powder, smoked paprika, black pepper and red pepper flakes. Mix well using your hands. Form patties from heaping 1/4 cups of the mixture, about 1/3-inch thick.
  2. Melt the butter in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the sausage patties in two batches until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F, about 5 minutes per side.
