Wilded, I just read your blog on making bacon...sounds wonderful.....definitely on my to do list now.!

Definetlydeb, you are absolutely right you need country eggs to have a really good breakfast. I only have 2 laying until late summer so I treasure every egg. At least I can get them at the local weekly farmers' market this time of year if I need more.

Ed,
That blog sight made me cry but the reciepe sounds great! And easy. We get a pig a year do you have a sausage reciepe on your sight. We get it made but it is sssooo fatty. Any ideas? or do I search your sight?

The first pig we raised the sausage was not fatty at all, the butcher shop even commented on it being a lean pig. I also loved the sausage off this pig. After I fried up a 1.25 pound chub of sausage about a tblsp of grease. The second pig well about 2-3 tbls. but different seasonings I think cause when I make gravy for biscuits it is orange grease.....but still tastes good....makes the gravy a bit orange though.

Can you raise your own pig? So you can monitor what it is given to eat? I think it would make a big difference in the fattiness of the meat you get.

We have tried many recipes but now use Leggs Old Plantation Breakfast Sausage Seasoning. Just follow the instructions. One packet does 25 pounds and the flavor is as good as we have found. ET
