Answer 2

I use the following to make breakfast sausage for my family.  If you like, skip the pepper. This recipe works with about 2 lbs of meat.  Plus, it's better when it's sat overnight.  Kind of marinates the flavors in the meat.

2 teaspoons dried sage

2 teaspoons salt

1 teaspoon ground black pepper

1/4 teaspoon dried marjoram

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

1 pinch ground cloves

Answer 3

Get a pepper mill and some good black peppercorns.

For breakfast sausage, sage and allspice is good.  BUT GO EASY ON ALLSPICE (if you started with 3 pounds of meat, no more than 1/4 tsp)!!!!!!!

For Italian, you can't beat basil, oregano, and fennel (fennel is a must).

Answer 4

I agree.  

For a pound of breakfast sausage I would add a TBSP of sage, a teaspoon each of salt, thyme, and pepper, and maybe a pinch of allspice or nutmeg.  For Italian sausage, I would add a TBSP of toasted fennel seeds, a teaspoon each of oregano, basil, thyme and salt and a half teaspoon of pepper.

But then I like peppery and fennelly sausage.  

So adjust these basic measure to what you think you would like, fry up a little piece, and see if it is to your liking.  Your friends will be impressed!
