WILD TURKEY SAUSAGE RECIPES RECIPES

Steps:

• Mix sage, salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes, and marjoram together in a small bowl. Place turkey in a large bowl and mix the spice mixture into the turkey using your hands; form into patties.
• Cook patties in a large skillet over medium-high heat until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Using the large die of a meat grinder, grind the turkey and pork fat into a bowl set over a bowl full of ice.
• Grind the meat a second time through the small die.
• In a large bowl, combine the meat with the remaining ingredients except the oil and mix well with your hands. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Form patties with a slightly wet hand. I like to make ’em 3 inches in diameter, ’cause they are easy to throw on the grill or in a pan that way, but you can make them any size you like.
• Preheat a cast-iron pan over high heat. Put a little oil in the pan and sear the sausage pat­ties for 4 minutes per side.
• Note: To freeze. separate the patties with a piece of freezer paper or parchment paper between them. Then wrap well with plastic wrap. They will keep in the freezer for up to 6 months.
