3 tbs sage
1 tbs nutmeg
2 tbs thyme
1 tbs ground red pepper

2. Allow the sausage to meld in a covered container in the refrigerator for 3 hours and then use or freeze immediately.

3. Pork sausage should not be allowed to stay at room temperature any longer than necessary.

Thanks Rick!!  I've read on here people talking about how good your breakfast sausage was, but for life of me I could not find the recipe.  
 
Looks great Rick - pretty easy to "capture" too. Looks like you  are still having fun with Living Cookbook program too

Yes I love that program.  I have most all of my recipes now converted to the Living Cookbook.  Being diabetic and such at least I can play around with ingredients and see the results and to be honest at least if I am killing myself I am doing so with full knowledge of what I am doing!  LOL
 
This sounds awesome, Thanks...JJ

I am trying to figure out an easy way to share recipes with the program. Wondering if we could set something up on a "cloud " or server somewhere to exchange with other users - I know NW Dave also uses it
 
I made this with 12 lbs. of feral hog meat today (9+ lbs. lean with 2+ lbs. pork fat), and just got done with the test patties.  Resting overnight right now.  The taste is incredible.  Thank you so much for sharing this recipe.
