Directions

In a deep bowl, combine all ingredients, using hands if necessary. On wax paper, shape and roll mixture into 2 logs, 6 inches long and 2 inches in diameter. Wrap in plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate overnight.

To serve, slice the rolls into rounds about ½ inch thick and fry in a heavy skillet over medium-low heat for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until done. Drain on paper towels and serve immediately.

An alternate way to prepare sausage is to shape mixture into large marble-size balls. Freeze if desired. To serve, bake frozen on a rack, starting in a cold oven, for 20 min. at 325 F.
