Homemade Maple Breakfast Sausage

Had a big ol' country breakfast yesterday, and fried up some maple breakfast sausage that I made a while back ~ boy howdy, this is the way breakfast sausage is supposed to be. We don't need no steenkin' Jimmy Dean, no.

Looks mighty good Brotherman, I got a question that I dare not ask on the other forum and you'll see why. Would pork tenderloin be good to make a stick of Tasso out of? I'd like to try to make some but don't want 5 lbs. first time around. I figure a 3 or 2 lb tender would make a good sample stick. Whatcha think? Edder

yeah, pork tenderloin makes dandy tasso ... it will just be real lean. shoot me an email and i'll give you some more details. i make my tasso with pork loin ... sliced thick (boneless pork chops) ... heavy coating of cure/rub ... fridge for 3-4 days ... rinse cure rub off, put cajun seasoning on ... smoke'em ... easy peasy.

any time you *cure* any cut of pork, essentially what you are doing is making HAM ... tasso is spicy smoked cajun ham ... can be make with ANY cut of pork

I looked all over your site but never found your email address. I'd like to try that tasso stuff with some beans or a little gumbo. Thanks much Edder
