What happens here
After seasoning, mix the meat thoroughly by hand, ensuring the seasonings are evenly distributed. Then, feed the seasoned meat through the grinder. As the meat is ground, take a small portion, patty it up, and cook it on a stovetop. Taste-test the cooked sausage. Adjust seasonings as needed based on the taste test, adding more Old Plantation seasoning or sage, and then re-grind a small portion to re-test until the flavor is perfect.
Goal: Grind and perfect the sausage seasoning through taste-testing.
