Jimmy Deans Hot Sausage Seasoning

Sea salt: 1 tsp Cayenne pepper: 1/2 tsp (adjust for more heat) Rubbed sage: 1/4 tsp Ground black pepper: 1/4 tsp Red pepper flakes: 1/4 tsp Coriander: 1/4 tsp MSG (such as Accent): 1/4 tsp (optional) Instructions Combine the spices: Place all the herbs and spices in a small bowl and mix them together. Mix with meat: Add the ground pork to a large mixing bowl. Sprinkle the seasoning mix over the meat. Blend thoroughly: Use your hands to thoroughly work the spices into the ground pork until the seasoning is evenly distributed. Rest the meat: Cover the sausage and place it in the refrigerator for a day or two to let the flavors fully develop and marry before cooking. Cook: Form the mixture into patties and fry in a skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through, or crumble and cook in a pan.
