I made this recipe exactly as written except I halved the recipe using the Zaar Servings Changer. I wish now that I had not! This was FANTASTIC! I am sure that I could have made the entire recipe and simply frozen half of it before cooking the sausage. The flavor in this recipe is incredible and was fantastic down home comfort food. I am going to make another batch of this and save some for stuffed mushrooms - add a little cream cheese, a little scallion. YUM!!! I can think of so many things that I can do with the recipe, like shaping single serve links and serving on a bun. This would also be perfect for cooking over a charcoal grill. Very d'lish and extremely versatile. Thank you for this awesome recipe! UPDATE: 05/18/08. I made another batch of this for a BBQ and shaped it into single sausage links. I cooked them on the grill and everyone just loved them and commented on the great flavor and the fact they had never had a sausage without the casing and preferred it that way. Home run!

I live in Colorado. I LOVE it here!
My husband and I own a motorcycle service and repair shop (primarily Harley's, but not in a snobbish way- if you love to ride- you are our kind of people- no matter what you ride.) We also have an on site machine shop and we make all kinds of custom parts and accessories.
I don't have a favorite cookbook, but some of my favorite recipes come from old newspapers and family recipes.
I really enjoy pottery, being outdoors, camping, growing herbs, flowers, and veggies, and spending time with my friends and family. I also love to grab a beer or glass of wine and just hang out w/friends.I also love to spend time with myself in a bath with a good book. (I don't find anything wrong with drinking alone under these circumstances.)
