GRANNY'S OLD FASHIONED PORK SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Trim any excess fat from the pork and cut into chunks. Place the meat through a meat grinder. Combine the ground meet and remaining ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Shape the sausage into patties. The sausage can be cooked immediately but for best flavor wrap the sausage patties in plastic wrap and freeze for 1-2 weeks. Thaw before cooking.

ORIGINAL SAUSAGE BALLS

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a stand mixer then mix at low speed using the paddle attachment (or mix by hand) until all ingredients are evenly combined.
• Roll dough into 1 1/2 inch balls and place on a baking sheet one inch apart. I used my handy-dandy cookie scoop to make quick work out of portioning these.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned on the bottom.

SAUSAGE BALLS WITHOUT BISQUICK MIX

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425° F.
• Add all your ingredients to a food processor and puree until well blended. Add your scallions last and pulse 1-2 times to incorporate.*If you don't grate your cheese ahead of time, it will be difficult to blend.*If you don't have a strong food processor, you can mix by hand!
• Use a mini ice cream scooper to neatly and evenly scoop out ½ ounce. Use your hands to roll them into round balls. Place on a nonstick baking sheet or parchment paper.
• The bottom of your sausage balls will bake flatter so if this bothers you, place them in the freezer for about 10 minutes to firm them up a bit. Then remove and re-roll them in between the palms of your hands to round them out again.
• Bake for 6-8 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F. Do not overbake!
• Serve hot with scallions as a garnish and ketchup or maple syrup for dipping!
