Don't ask me why but for the last few years I've been trying to come up with a good tasting cranberry orange sausage, only to end up with something not as good as I had hoped. Not a failure but not anything to rave about. this year i know of two mistakes I made. one was using dried orange zest from a bottle instead of zest from a fresh orange. I could hardly taste the flavor. Mistake number 2 was when I thought I had a good mix of seasoning I decided to add some more ginger. BAM.... overpowered everything else.
Oh well maybe I'll get it right next year.
The recipe is a combination of a few recipes I found on the web with my own twists.
Turkey Cranberry and Orange Sausage;
Turkey Thigh 2.5 lb's
Smoked Sweet Bacon 1.4 lb's
Dryed Cranberries soaked

White Pepper 4.5
Ginger 2
