A simple and easy summer sausage recipe you can make in the oven.
1lb ground beef ( I used ground chuck )
1 1/2 tsps of Morton Tender Quick
1 tsp of mustard seed
1 tsp brown sugar
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp liquid smoke ( optional )
Mix all ingredients well and refrigerate for 24 hours.
Then form in to a cylinder shape about the diameter of pepperoni. Place on metal drying rack and place that rack on a sheet pan lined with foil to catch the drippings. Put cylinder of sausage into a 200-225 oven until the internal temperature is 170F degrees. Allow to cool and refrigerate overnight to set up. Then slice and have with your favorite crackers.
Keep refrigerated.
