Country-Style Breakfast Sausage
Hi Guys, I tried Pop's Breakfast Sausage again, this time with a few tweaks: I backed the salt off to 1.7%. It was much better, but I think I'll back it down even more in the next trial. I kept the black pepper amount the same but I used fresh ground from my new Peugeot pepper mill. The new... -

Adding MSG to recipes
I got curious while I was on Amazon for the I & G so I took a look for MSG. ALL the brands in the nutrition info section listed a serving as 1/4 tsp and said it weighed 1g, so that's 4g per full tsp. -

Adding MSG to recipes
DailyLunatic - thanks for the nice write up! I did some tweaks to Pop's Breakfast Sausage a couple weeks ago and added msg. The directions said 1/2 tsp per lb, so I measured out and weighed several 1/2 tsp increments and I came up with an average of 2.27 grams (4.54 / tsp), but yeah, no matter... -

Country-Style Breakfast Sausage
A few weeks ago I made some of Pop's Breakfast Sausage. I followed the recipe as closely as I could because I just hate it when people comment on a recipe and say they made the recipe EXCEPT they did this, that, etc.. In my opinion NOPE, you didn't make the recipe! I have to admit that at... -

Adding MSG to recipes
.25% is a little low from what's usually recommended, isn't it? From what I found on the net usually 1/2 tsp per pound is recommended and a half a tsp weighs just under 4 grams. Figures to 8.8 grams per kg, or .88%? Is .88% more of a maximum and lesser amounts sometimes work better? -

Pop's Country-Style Breakfast Sausage Variations
I did a little snooping in the nutrition facts for the national brands of breakfast sausage patties and did a little math (converting sodium to salt, then the percent of salt in the serving) and this is what I came up with: 1.8% Jimmy Dean 1.7% Johnsonville 1.7% Smithfield 1.6% Hormel -

Pop's Country-Style Breakfast Sausage Variations
OK, the math works though I took the long way...again, my eyes are tired tonight (but I'm not, not a good combination for rational thinking, LOL!). I popped this into a spreadsheet. Pop's Original 8/2/1 Recipe: Salt = 2.20% Pepper = 0.55% Sage = 0.28% Changing just the salt to 5.5 oz and... -

Pop's Country-Style Breakfast Sausage Variations
Thanks for the feedback guys! It's been a long day...my glasses got broke and I'm low vision to start with, so I'm not sure I'm up to a bunch of math tonight, but here's my go at figuring out what percentage of salt is in Pop's spice mix: Pop's spice mix ------------------- 8 oz salt 2 oz... -

Pop's Country-Style Breakfast Sausage Variations
Hi Guys, I've made a few batches of breakfast sausage, some from commercial spice mixes and some recipes I've found on the net. I haven't been overly happy with any of them. I ran across pops69927's Country-Style Breakfast Sausage thread...
