A few weeks ago we became the proud owners of 137.5 pounds of grass fed beef. This is what a quarter of a cow weighed. This is a lot of cow, but I couldn’t be more thrilled to have a nicely filled freezer full of tastiness. Mmmm… I have a nice homemade turkey sausage, but because I have such a nice amount of grass fed ground beef on hand I knew I needed to come up with a good beef breakfast sausage. And, because it is how I roll, I put instructions in so you can mix this up and freeze your sausage ahead of time if you choose.
