Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix the Meats

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork and ground beef. If using pork fatback, add it to the bowl as well.

  2. 2

    Add Seasonings

    Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, dried sage, dried thyme, and crushed red pepper flakes over the meat mixture. Use your hands or a spatula to mix until the seasonings are evenly distributed.

  3. 3

    Incorporate Water

    Drizzle the cold water over the meat mixture. This helps to keep the patties moist. Mix again until just combined.

  4. 4

    Form Patties

    Divide the mixture into equal portions (about 4-6 patties). Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten it into a patty shape about 1/2 inch thick.

Cooking

  1. 5

    Heat the Pan

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

  2. 6

    Cook the Patties

    Add the sausage patties to the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are nicely browned and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 160°F).

  3. 7

    Drain and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the patties from the skillet and let them drain on paper towels to remove excess oil. Serve warm.
