Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Combine Meats

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork and ground beef. Use your hands to mix them until well combined.

  2. 2

    Add Spices

    Add salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, crushed red pepper flakes, dried thyme, and dried sage to the meat mixture. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of the spices.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Form Sausage Patties

    Using your hands, shape the meat mixture into patties or links, depending on your preference. Aim for about 4 ounces per patty.

  2. 4

    Heat Olive Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.

  3. 5

    Cook Sausage

    Place the sausage patties in the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

  4. 6

    Add Water

    If the sausages start to brown too quickly, add 1 cup of water to the skillet and cover. This will steam the sausages and keep them moist. Cook for an additional 5 minutes.

  5. 7

    Finish Cooking

    Remove the cover and cook for another 2-3 minutes to allow any remaining moisture to evaporate and to brown the sausages further if desired.
