Step 1

Place a metal mixing bowl into the freezer, so it can keep the pork as cold as possible when you make it.

Step 2

Prepare the minced Fresh Sage (3 Tbsp) and combine it with the Salt (1 Tbsp) , Ground Black Pepper (1 tsp) and Crushed Red Pepper Flakes (1/2 Tbsp) .

Step 3

Pull the cold bowl from the freezer and add the 80/20 Lean Ground Pork (1 lb) , along with the seasoning mixture. I substituted sriracha for the crushed red pepper and added that at this point.

Step 4

With gloved hands or extremely clean hands, mix everything together as quickly and thoroughly as possible.

Step 5

Use plastic wrap to wrap the sausage up. Try and form it into a cylindrical shape, so you can slice patties easily.

Step 6

Wrap the ends, making sure to get all the air out. Place in the fridge for up to 3 days or the freezer for up to a month.
