I love how everyone has a goto starter but has to add shit to it. Isn't there just a "go to" out there?
Say you're "Leo": Except for the "cheese" you've worked hard for the perfect mix to bring to market; then a flashy ingredienter feels the need to chop and toss in bullshit for "ownership" and "spin": Your feelings would be hurt.I like leos also.... Add some diced garlic, Jalips, fresh ground black peppper, cheddar cheese. I dont really like breakfast sausage tho. Im more of a fan of country style sausage.
Dude you offended LeoEveryone has different taste, mass produced food products are typically formulated so they are palatable for everyone, but I like more spice, especially garlic and also a little heat, some people cannot deal with heat (peppers). Also IMO Leos 25lb bag is too salty as suggested. I prefer to use about 30lbs of meat with the 25lb seasoning pack. Each to his own I guess.
You dice or smash up the garlic?50# batch we usually do 50/50 deer to pork, but all pork is good too. Blend together 1/4 cup of ground black pepper, 1/4 cup tender quick, 12-15 cloves garlic, and yes a splash of liquid smoke along with a cup and a half water. Mix well into the meat. This is a good starting point but may be too much pepper for some. We usually add more garlic but be careful. It can get out of hand quick, big tipping point. I’d consider this a country style/polish sausage more than a breakfast sausage. But the patties are great for breakfast.
I do agree liquid smoke generally isn’t something I want to use. But it makes a good difference in sausage imo.
Either way, I’d scale that way down and try some before going with a big batch.
NO!! If you insult "Leo's" vision you may receive negative attention from Elton John. He can kick.Everyone has different taste, mass produced food products are typically formulated so they are palatable for everyone, but I like more spice, especially garlic and also a little heat, some people cannot deal with heat (peppers).

Put it all in a blender and puree it. Then mix it i to the meat really well. And enough water to make it stuff easily too, the water listed is just for blending.You dice or smash up the garlic?
I cut them up then run through blender with alot of water works best.You dice or smash up the garlic?
