Question for Sausage Makers

[MoHuka]

I am here in Saudi where pork is forbidden.  McDonalds sells sausage breakfast sandwiches with a sausage made from chicken which actually has the taste of pork sausage.

Do any of you know what spices I could add to ground beef, chicken or lamb that would trick my brain into thinking it was enjoying pork sausage with the eggs in the morning?

Which meat would be the best to use?

Thanks in advance for helping a smoker in distress

Sage...breakfast sausage is about sage and pepper in my opinion

[Waltz]

I would add some mace to the sage and pepper but it seems like a good opportunity to experiment a little to find out what works best, it will all be edible.

Here's a recipe for Yah, Try turkey maybe .

Breakfast sausage




Breakfast sausage is without a doubt the most popular sausage in the world. Served by fast food restaurants, given in the form of sausage links to patients in hospitals, sold at supermarkets. Made like most sausages of pork, salt and pepper with sage being the dominant spice.

Thanks to everyone for the help..

Keymaster - could I use your recipe and just make patties since I don't have any equipment here?

You can make patties or links from his recipe. I have made it using lamb, not bad at all. You might want to add some beef fat to the mix. I have made venison sausage for folks who prefer beef fat over pork. Great taste.

Yes, patty's will be fine but as said you may need to add a little fat or use an egg so it sticks together. It's not my recipe but got it from this WEBSITE under sausage recipes Tab. I have used it before and is good.

Hey cannot thank you guys enough...will be putting some b'fast sausage together as soon as I can round up the ingredients....little things like this make life more bearable over here.....

Once you get the meat, use what ever spice you like. It will always turn out good. May not be traditional sausage, but if you enjoy it then that's all that matters.
